CB Registration plugin - link file upload to profile avatar

vrcgupta 16 Apr, 2009
I am able configure Chronoform with CB registration plugin. All the fields are getting updated. Only problem I am facing is with file upload. In ChronoForm wizard I draged fileupload. The item name was say 'File_10'. I copy pasted the item name in CB registration plugin next to profile image.

When uploading a picture and registering, the image is not showing up an users profile page.

Did I miss any step for 'file upload' specifically, as rest all fields are working fine.

Hi vrcgupta,

I think the simple answer is that the Plugin doesn't handle avatar uploads so you'd need to add this code yourself.

I bumped into this caveat too today. I have a bit of an awkward solution for this but it depends on the type of site you have wether or not this solution is any good for you.
My registration page is rather big and has multiple image uploads (including the avatar). So what I do when someone registers is I first bring them towards the normal CB registration page wherre they fill out their basic info (name, e-mail etc and where they can upload all the pictures, and then I take them to a second (chronoform) where they must fill in the rest of the stuff.

It's not a pretty solution, but it works...for now. Hopefully image uploading and automatic resizing gets implemented in the plugin soon (hint hint) ;-)
