Hi !

I modify extended profile fields using a HTML form and with the function xprofile_set_field_data. My question is :
There is a function to modify the extended profile picture using the <input type="file"> of HTML form ?

Thank you and have a good day !

You can create a multitype form with html and process it with PHP, or an existing WordPress function.

You would need to modify the database to store your file upload paths also.

Your form will have a field like this

<input type="file" name="file">

You will capture the upload with $_FILES['files']

You can pass that into wp_handle_upload()

Look here http://php.net/manual/en/reserved.variables.files.php for each item the $_FILES array will capture for you.
