Profile Pics

[musicmann]

I think both of these are planned future updates, but I'm wondering if there are any "plugins" or easy ways to implement profile pictures (avatar and file upload) and login via Facebook that would work with the current version of UserFrosting.

I'm in the process of rewriting a proof-of-concept web app. I love the concept of UserFrosting, and I'm sure I'll eventually move the app to it.

I know @r3wt wrote some code for profile pictures a few months back - see issue #131. But, it might need some tweaking to work with the latest version of UF. Want to take a stab at it and let me know how it goes?

[musicmann]

Thanks. I might give it a go.

Looking through the list of comments, I don't see that anyone has attempted Facebook login. That may be way above my new PHP skills.

[alexweissman]

Yeah, not as far as I know. But, it is definitely an essential feature I'd like to see implemented at some point.

You can pull my profile pic upload and facebook login from superuser
should be pretty easy to merge once you've inspected the data model

Thanks @r3wt!

I'm excited to know someone has successfully done both (profile pics and Facebook login). I tried to take a quick look to see the code from superuser. I'm new to GitHub, and I'm not sure exactly how to "pull...from supersuer." I'm going to try to get up to speed with GH next week with some Lynda training but would also love if you could point me in the right direction.

Regardless, I'm grateful that you've done work in this area, and I'm even more impressed taking a look at the quality of your posts...I'm sure your code is excellent. I'm looking forward to putting it into use.

[musicmann]

Ahhh, @r3wt , I see what you're talking about re: superuser. I'll take a look at it.

@r3wt How did you go about adding those photos exactly? I think this is really useful!

[alexweissman]

The OAuth plugin will be released with v0.3.1. Profile pics...probably as well.

[r3wt]

👍

[alexweissman]

Not sure if we're gonna get profile pics in this release, but hopefully next release. OAuth plugin should be coming along, though.

This has been implemented on a very basic level in V4, with gravatar. If the user's email is registered with gravatar, UF will automatically generate a link to it under a user's avatar property. In the future, we might implement "upload image" as an option as well.
