I am using Drupal 7.
I follow this link to enable profile picture of user.
Now i want to get profile picture from user at the time of registration.
How can i get this?
Any help will be appreciated.
Ideal module to do this is Reg-With-Pic
You will be given a check box at admin/config/people/accounts named "Enable user pictures on registration" and weight selection.
If you are using Content Profile module, File field would be an option.
Here is the Helper function to add default user account fields to user registration and edit form.

You might also want to use the Gravatar module to take some of the pain out of what you are suggesting. It's enough trouble to set up a profile on yet another site that you might not want to force them to configure their profile at the time of registration, especially with such things as a "user picture", unless you really want to put a damper on registrations.
Depending on the type of site you are working on, the Gravatar module might be ideal. Anyone who already has a Gravatar will have it automatically set as their user picture.

I'm sorry for my English.
I'm new here, I would like to ask. i want to create a registration form. In this registration form i would like to have a field that someone could add a code and enable a particular role for him. Also i would like to have the ability to put more than one code with a "+" button and enable more roles for this account. Is it possible to do something like this or is there any plugin to do it?
Thank you
I have a site in Wordpress.
The functionality I need is such that, I can create 'users' of the site. These users have no purpose editing the Wordpress site in any way, and don't need to know we're even using the wordpress platform.
These users need to be able to edit their contact info and upload/view/swap out their own resume, using a page that I will build for them (not the wp-admin dashboard in any way). This resume will be PDFs and WordDocs.
At first I thought I'd just use the built in Wordpress Users and Roles that Wordpress offers. However, I'm not sure how I would attach resumes to that user, and let that user edit their own resume. I know I can use the 'user_contactmethods' hook to attach basic fields. However, I'd be trying to attach a link to a file that Wordpress hosts, and would need to be able to replace that file on a whim, in php. Also, my goal is to prevent them from ever using the Wordpress dashboard or editing tools.
Next, I thought I could create a custom post type for a 'SiteUser'. That would make it easy to manage a PDF/WordDoc attached to that post type. Also, that user wouldn't have any way to access the Wordpress stuff. Before I do that though, I wanted to ask on here if this really is the right way to do this.
This solution feels hacky.
Can I get some proposed solutions to this problem that could be perceived as 'the proper way'?
Thanks
Here is a rough idea of what you are looking to do.
Step 1
Create the user role for these new users
Step 2
Set the permission for them and disable backend access and redirect all access of those roles to a custom page /account/
Step 3
Use Advance custom fields plugin to create some custom fields on the user meta. (text, file, image)
Step 4
Apply some login logic/form and Link to a /account/edit-info/ custom page with the acf frontend form. https://www.advancedcustomfields.com/resources/create-a-front-end-form/
Step 5
Use these info to display somewhere on the /account/ page
Optional
Using gravity forms instead to manage user data entry gives better control but requires more coding, and a better user experience.
Front-end Admin Steps
Repeat Step 1-2
Loop site user and list them and their custom field files Have a button that opens a Gravity form with the user ID text field pre-populated and hidden, and have a file uploader element.
Add backend hooks after validation directly replace the user meta
containing the file path or ID (however you choice to store it in
Advance custom fields)
first time here. I have searched all day for my particular issue with no luck.
I have users that have specific roles auto generated (they purchase a game). I want to display files available to their particular role on their user profile page. I just want to know how I can add a generic view or associate a panel with user profile pages. I want this to display for every user, not on a per user basis. Basically it'll act like, say, direct2drive, you log in and go to your user profile basically and see what games you bought. Seems simple but I am having a heck of a time figuring out how to do this.
I am pretty used to using views but I just don't get how to edit the user profiles like I want to.
Thanks!
The simplest way is to install views_attach, and create a view with a Profile display. This displays the View on the user profile pages, rather than on its own page or in a block, and will pass the user's uid to the View as an argument.
Alternatively, if you're already using comfortable using panels, you can go to admin/build/panels and enable the Users panel. This replaces the user profile page with a panel, which you can add views, nodes and blocks to as normal.
I dont know if im asking the impossible, but i want to have a tab in my user edit area that houses all blog related items (ie blog theme, blog info, user blogroll) as opposed to them being inside the user/%/edit and user/%/edit profile.
Im putting together a multi-user site and this is crucial for user-friendliness.
Thanks for any ideas!
Nothing is impossible with Drupal, but doing this would be a challenge.
With hook_form_alter you can alter any form you want. The code for this would have to go to a custom module. Then you would have to recreate the form, with a page callback, and handle the validation and submission. You can probably recreate the code from the modules that create the forms in the first place.
Alternative, you can just leave the settings at user/%/edit and other places, and just create a special form with all blog relevant info. That way the users choose where to edit their info. It will probably be a better choice, since the "blog settings" that's location at user/%/edit, will be more tied to the user, than to the blog. So when a user wants to edit some of his personal details, that's when he would want to edit those blog settings as well.
Your specific might be different, but the default setup is usually a very good default.
I can not see a first-name or full name field in Drupal's create/edit user form. I am using Drupal 6. How do I store a user's full name in it?
You will need to enable the Profile module for that. This module lets you add fields to users.
See information about the module in the handbook, and some nice instructions here (under "Adding special properties to user profiles").
Drupal supports fully configurable profiles. Turn on the module (it's in core) and navigate to /admin/user/profile to add/edit fields.
Use Drupal's built-in profile module.
I realize that everyone's suggesting the profile module, and I agree that that will work fine on small enough sites, if you don't have too many user profile fields and not too many users... but it can be a hog on larger sites.
I'd also point out the Content Profile module, which allows you to create a node type and use it to extend the user's information that way, which also has the advantage of giving you the width and breadth of CCK for creating fields, instead of being stuck with profile's limited selection.
