Moving the User Picture Upload Interface

Marius Hi,

Did you find a solution to move the user picture to it's own tab? That would be wonderful, thanx!

Ran into a few issues with this implementation. Though it work well initially, but had problems with imagecache etc. A deeper look into the user module and I came up with a few changes:

Change Step 2:
This create an url that calls the original user edit page with an additional argument

    $items['user/%user/edit/account/upload-picture'] = array(
    'title' => 'Upload Profile Picture',
    'page callback' => 'user_edit',
    'page arguments' => array(1),
    'access callback' => 'user_edit_access',
    'access arguments' => array(1),
    'type' => MENU_CALLBACK,
    'load arguments' => array('%map', '%index'),
    'file' => 'user.pages.inc',
    'file path' => drupal_get_path('module', 'user'),
  );

Change Step 3:
Call a form alter for the particular url

function mymodule_form_alter(&$form, $form_state, $form_id){
  if($form_id == 'user_profile_form' && arg(4) == 'upload-picture'){
  //if changing username is disallowed, it will be hidden by default
  $form['account']['pass']['#type'] = 'hidden';
  $form['account']['#title'] = t('');
  $form['account']['mail']['#type'] = 'hidden';
			
  unset($form['contact']);
  }
}

Here is my own module code for 6.x (create a module called "Avatar" with its .info file and in avatar.module file paste this code)

Note: I use Avatar Crop module, so I deliberately commented out the default picture upload form/buttons. I also tried to get rid of the "Save" and "Delete" buttons because those come from 'user_profile_form' (the account settings form) and therefore are confusing and dangerous, but I couldn't do remove them. If you know how to remove the "Save" and "Delete" button from this tab, I would greately appreciate it.

<?php
function avatar_user($op, &$edit, &$account, $category = NULL) {
  if ($op == 'categories') {
    $categories = array(array(
      'name' => 'avatar', 
      'title' => t('Picture'), 
      'weight' => 1)
    );
    return $categories;
  }
  if ($op == 'form' && $category == 'avatar') {
    $form = array();
    $form['avatar'] = array(
      '#type' => 'fieldset',
    );
    $form['avatar']['preview'] = array(
      '#type' => 'markup',
      '#value' => theme('user_picture', $account),
      '#prefix' => '<h2>'. t('Your current picture'). '</h2>',
    );
//  Removing the default Drupal picture upload form, because I'm using Avatar Crop module
//    $form['avatar']['picture_upload'] = array(
//      '#type' => 'file',
//      '#title' => t('Upload a new picture'),
//      '#size' => 20,
//    );
    return $form;
  }
  if ($op == 'validate' && $category == 'avatar') {
    if ($file = file_save_upload('picture_upload')) {
      // user.module's function for validating pictures is plenty good
      user_validate_picture($file, $edit, $account);
    }
  }
}

function avatar_form_alter($form_id, &$form_state, &$form) {
  if($form_id == 'user_profile_form' && arg(3) == NULL) {
    // only fire this if it's user/<uid>/edit, not any other category
    unset($form['picture']);
//	unset($form['save']);
  }
//  I tried to get rid of the Save and Delete buttons on this form, but I couldn't.  If you know how to do it, please help 
//  if($form_id == 'user_profile_form' && arg(3) != NULL) {
    // getting rid of the Save button
//	unset($form['save']);
//	unset($form['buttons']['submit']);
//  }

}

If you know how to remove the "Save" and "Delete" buttons on this form, without removing them on the Account Settings page, please help and write your solution.
