adding picture on user registration form

Posted by yoeld on June 20, 2009 at 4:59pm

Hi,

I would like to add picture upload on the user registration form. I am using the core option profile module.

I added this code via the form_alter function:

$form['public']['picture']['picture_upload'] = array(
'#type' => 'file', '#title' => t('Upload picture'),
'#size' => 48, 
'#description' => t('Your virtual face or picture.  Maximum dimensions are %dimensions and the maximum size is %size kB.', array('%dimensions' => variable_get('user_picture_dimensions', '85x85'), '%size' => variable_get('user_picture_file_size', '30'))) .' '. variable_get('user_picture_guidelines', ''));

The upload button appears well and everything SEEMS to be perfect. The only problem is that the picture is not stored in the database ... !

Somebody can provide me with a hint?

Thanks in advance.
