Gravity Forms File Upload Function to Display Buddypress Avatar WordPress

Hello,

I am looking for someone familiar with gravity forms and the user registration add-on to help me.

I have a user registration form that maps every field into the profile for a new Buddypress sign up successfully. What I am unable to find a solution to is how to get the 'file upload' field to work with Buddypress avatars.

When a user uploads an avatar it currently just stores the link in a custom meta. I need to be able to make it so that when a user uploads their avatar on the registration form the avatar is then displayed in the members Buddypress profile.

I hope to achieve this by using the various hooks and functions built into Buddypress like bp_displayed_user_avatar.

I am hoping someone can provide me details on how to setup the functionality as mentioned above.

Many Thanks

Hello,

Try something like this

<?php

// Following code will replace buddypress bp_displayed_user_avatar(). Add it in function.php of theme
add_filter('bp_displayed_user_avatar', 'custom_function_to_display_image', 10, 4);

// Callback function
function custom_function_to_display_image($args)
{
// Code for displaying gravity form image for a specific user
}
// $args : (Customize the values according to your need.)
?>
