User Switching vs One User Avatar | User Profile Picture

WordPress currently only allows you to use custom avatars that are uploaded through Gravatar. One User Avatar enables you to use any photo uploaded into your Media Library as an avatar. This means you use the same uploader and library as your posts. No extra folders or image editing functions are necessary. This plugin is a fork of WP User Avatar v2.2.16. One User Avatar also lets you: Upload your own Default Avatar in your One User Avatar settings. Show the user’s Gravatar avatar or Default Avatar if the user doesn’t have a One User Avatar image. Disable Gravatar avatars and use only local avatars. Use the [avatar_upload] shortcode to add a standalone uploader to a front page or widget. This uploader is only visible to logged-in users. Use the [avatar] shortcode in your posts. These shortcodes will work with any theme, whether it has avatar support or not. Allow Contributors and Subscribers to upload their own avatars. Limit upload file size and image dimensions for Contributors and Subscribers.

Advanced Settings Add One User Avatar to your own profile edit page You can use the [avatar_upload] shortcode to add a standalone uploader to any page. It’s best to use this uploader by itself and without other profile fields. If you’re building your own profile edit page with other fields, One User Avatar is automatically added to the show_user_profile and edit_user_profile hooks. If you’d rather have One User Avatar in its own section, you could add another hook: do_action( 'edit_user_avatar', $current_user ); Then, to add One User Avatar to that hook and remove it from the other hooks outside of the administration panel, you would add this code to the functions.php file of your theme: function my_avatar_filter() { // Remove from show_user_profile hook remove_action( 'show_user_profile', array( 'wp_user_avatar', 'wpua_action_show_user_profile' ) ); remove_action( 'show_user_profile', array( 'wp_user_avatar', 'wpua_media_upload_scripts' ) ); // Remove from edit_user_profile hook remove_action( 'edit_user_profile', array( 'wp_user_avatar', 'wpua_action_show_user_profile' ) ); remove_action( 'edit_user_profile', array( 'wp_user_avatar', 'wpua_media_upload_scripts' ) ); // Add to edit_user_avatar hook add_action( 'edit_user_avatar', array( 'wp_user_avatar', 'wpua_action_show_user_profile' ) ); add_action( 'edit_user_avatar', array( 'wp_user_avatar', 'wpua_media_upload_scripts' ) ); } // Loads only outside of administration panel if ( ! is_admin() ) { add_action( 'init','my_avatar_filter' ); } HTML Wrapper You can change the HTML wrapper of the One User Avatar section by using the functions wpua_before_avatar and wpua_after_avatar. By default, the avatar code is structured like this: Avatar Edit Image Original Size Thumbnail Default Avatar Undo To strip out the div container and h3 heading, you would add the following filters to the functions.php file in your theme: remove_action( 'wpua_before_avatar', 'wpua_do_before_avatar' ); remove_action( 'wpua_after_avatar', 'wpua_do_after_avatar' ); To add your own wrapper, you could create something like this: function my_before_avatar() { echo ' '; } add_action( 'wpua_before_avatar', 'my_before_avatar' ); function my_after_avatar() { echo ' '; } add_action( 'wpua_after_avatar', 'my_after_avatar' ); This would output: Edit Image Original Size Thumbnail Default Avatar Undo

User Switching makes use of browser cookies in order to allow users to switch to another account. Its cookies operate using the same mechanism as the authentication cookies in WordPress core, which means their values contain the user’s user_login field in plain text which should be treated as potentially personally identifiable information (PII) for privacy and regulatory reasons (GDPR, CCPA, etc). The names of the cookies are: wordpress_user_sw_{COOKIEHASH} wordpress_user_sw_secure_{COOKIEHASH} wordpress_user_sw_olduser_{COOKIEHASH} See also the FAQ for some questions relating to privacy and safety when switching between users. Accessibility Statement User Switching aims to be fully accessible to all of its users. It implements best practices for web accessibility, outputs semantic and structured markup, adheres to the default styles and accessibility guidelines of WordPress, uses the accessibility APIs provided by WordPress and web browsers where appropriate, and is fully accessible via keyboard. User Switching should adhere to Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.0 at level AA when used with a recent version of WordPress where its admin area itself adheres to these guidelines. If you’ve experienced or identified an accessibility issue in User Switching, please open a thread in the User Switching plugin support forum and I’ll address it swiftly.
