Profile Image

[scrt]

EDIT: Sachingk gravitar is different for he disabled avatar. And his reasoning might be just - people do not know what is an avatar for someone mention joining the two together - show avatar image or profile image.
Sachingk gravitar should be called sgravitar (suggestiion for s represents special Sachingk since he is the developer). This name would avoid confusion years down the road in a production environment - we forget that there are two gravitar and they are different.
In my case, I did not install any gravitar. Thus I download Nick`s gravitar and then replace gravitar.php with saching`s gravitar. It would be nice if sachingk did this step for me by having the sgravitar in its own folder with its required (own folder, readme, etc) for user to install. Similarity, profile_image to install that. Thus 3 readme, readme1 info about the two folder overview on what to do. Readme2 insidie sgravitar folder with info on ithat install. Readme3 inside profile_image folder with that install.
Have not tested but believe I had no problem. Remember,plugin/xxx folder with xxx.php content and not plugin/profile_image folder/profile_image folder.
It hard for me to type for my eyes are going and I hope u appreciate the time for this suggestion and some useful instructions. tx

SachingK gravitar should be the official gravitar? User can upload there avatar. In this case, it can be a profile image, an avatar image, etc.

Edit Mar 26: 1) How can I differentiate SachingK modify gravitar from Nick gravitar? I cannot for there is no mention in SachingK modify gravitar; he provided in profile_image .7 folder. Strongly suggest a mention in the comment or joint authors in that modify gravitar to avoid users problems in the future. We need to differentiate for there is no modify log in that hack gravitar. We can forget in about 2 years if we have to maintain without realizing the two different gravitar.
2) Profile image folder is call .7 but profile image in plugin management for that plugin is showing .5. Mention by a couple of users. \content\imagesprofile_images folder need to be created reminder.
3) U upload in your edit profile if u are wondering and please do not forget to code as suggested in the install steps.
<?php echo $h->showMessage(); ?>
// insertion code below as suggested in forum
<?php $h->pluginHook('profile_image'); ?>
4) Install and running. Remember, u can change the kb size in upload.php {define ("MAX_SIZE","100");} and image size mention in posting. tx

Important:

When any user upload a new image, that image become the avatar for ALL users.

in other words:

any image uploaded by any user becomes the default avatar image for all users!!!

Exemple:

user1 uses the default avatar.

user2 send a new image file to change his avatar.

user2 now see all users avatars with the same image he just uploaded, including those on post listing and coments, the same for all users.

when user1 (who never changed the avatar and uses the default avatar) log in, all other users avatars, including user2 avatar are the same default image.


something really strange going on here.

i really need that profile image working, or i cant put my site on production mode.

Could some one please elaborate the second step?
Where exactly I need to put this line of code?

Step 2 : Use the plugin hook to display the plugin where ever you want
Code:
<?php $h->pluginHook('profile_image'); ?>

plugin works, what I'm concerned about is just it copies image into webserver path and I can actually upload php code to hack site with extension .jpg and it'll put malicious PHP script into webservers space. Perhaps I shall use image functions and resize uploaded image to 80x80 pix as well...

[PuckRobin]

It doesn't matter you can upload it like that. You cannot run a file with jpg extension as php or html unless you configured your server intentionally to do so. And you are not allowed to do so if you do not have a dedicated server. Otherwise, it would be possible to hack any image sharing website.

But it is a good practice to check for the real file type without relying on the extension. Sometimes extensions are not correct, although there is no malicious intention.
