Were you adding the avatar upload to the registration form via some custom code? (I think I’ve seen plugins and such that do that.) It looks like you’ve removed that step for now, so maybe all is well?

BuddyPress uses a theme compatibility layer, meaning it uses its own templates that are designed to drop into any theme. You can overload all kinds of template parts for BuddyPress:

However, there are plugins (I’ve not tested) that you could maybe get to work if you…[Read more]

This is sort of a big WordPress question that lots of people would like to change, but it’s not that easy.

But I imagine that the simpler answer would be to use Profile Fields. If you add profile fields to the base group, then they appear on the registration form and are saved at…[Read more]

Hi moefahmy,
