Hi all, I am trying to create a if else statement to show a default image if no image is uploaded. image field = avatar (maximum files allowed set to 1) Below is the full code now. The code below does not output "this is a test" if the image field is not populated. <?php // Run through all images and set thumbnail foreach($user->avatar as $image) { $thumb = $image->size(142); } //Check if avatar field contains a value if (isset($thumb)){ $avatar_thumb .= "<img class='img-rounded img-responsive' src='{$thumb->url}'' alt='{$thumb->description}'' />"; } else { $avatar_thumb .= "This ia a test"; } ?> <!--Display Avatar image--> <div class="user-image"> <?php echo $avatar_thumb; ?> </div>

thanks that did the trick. The code is used: foreach($user->avatar as $image) { $large = $image->width(500); $thumb = $image->size(100, 100); $avatar_thumb = "<img class='img-circle' src='{$thumb->url}'' alt='{$thumb->description}'' />"; } <div class="user-image"> <?php echo $avatar_thumb; ?> </div>

Hi All, I am trying to allow users to upload a profile image. What I've done: Created a new field (crop image) called "avatar" and added this to the users template Using the code shown below I can successfully upload images. What I'm not sure of how is: Is the field type correct and best way How to display the thumbnail of the image once uploaded thanks <?php $upload_path = $config->paths->assets . "files/avatar_uploads/"; $f = new WireUpload('avatar'); $f->setMaxFiles(1); $f->setMaxFileSize(5*1024*1024); $f->setOverwrite(true); $f->setDestinationPath($upload_path); $f->setValidExtensions(array('jpg', 'jpeg', 'png', 'gif')); if($input->post->form_submit) { if(!is_dir($upload_path)) { if(!wireMkdir($upload_path)) throw new WireException("No upload path!"); } $files = $f->execute(); if ($f->getErrors()) { foreach($files as $filename) @unlink($upload_path . $filename); foreach($f->getErrors() as $e) echo $e; } else { //$u = $users->get($user); //$u = $user->name; //Save the photo to the avatar field $user->of(false); $user->avatar = $upload_path . $files[0]; $user->save(); $user->of(true); @unlink($upload_path . $files[0]); } } ?> <form class="forum-form" accept-charset="utf-8" action="./" method="post" enctype="multipart/form-data" > <input type="file" id="attach" name="avatar" multiple="multiple" accept="image/jpg,image/jpeg,image/gif,image/png" /> <input type="submit" name="form_submit" value="Submit"/> </form>

thanks you very much I have updated my code in the original post just incase anyone needs to do the same.

thanks Pete, makes sense

Hi All, I have a user field called user_activation (textfield), which contains an activation code. The user receives a email with an activation code, upon when clicked changes that field to a value of "0". I want to check that field before a user logs in, but unsure how to access that field without the user actually being logged in. Using the below code, the field always returns NULL. <?php $login_errors = ""; $out = ""; $form = "<div class='omb_login'> <h3 class='omb_authTitle'>Login or <a href='/register/'>Sign up</a></h3> <div class='row omb_row-sm-offset-3 omb_socialButtons'> <div class='col-xs-4 col-sm-2'> <a href='#' class='btn btn-lg btn-block omb_btn-facebook'> <i class='fa fa-facebook visible-xs'></i> <span class='hidden-xs'>Facebook</span> </a> </div> <div class='col-xs-4 col-sm-2'> <a href='#' class='btn btn-lg btn-block omb_btn-twitter'> <i class='fa fa-twitter visible-xs'></i> <span class='hidden-xs'>Twitter</span> </a> </div> <div class='col-xs-4 col-sm-2'> <a href='#' class='btn btn-lg btn-block omb_btn-google'> <i class='fa fa-google-plus visible-xs'></i> <span class='hidden-xs'>Google+</span> </a> </div> </div> <div class='row omb_row-sm-offset-3 omb_loginOr'> <div class='col-xs-12 col-sm-6'> <hr class='omb_hrOr'> <span class='omb_spanOr'>or</span> </div> </div> <div class='row omb_row-sm-offset-3'> <div class='col-xs-12 col-sm-6'> <form class='omb_loginForm' action='./' accept-charset='UTF-8' autocomplete='off' method='POST'> <div class='alert alert-error fade-in alert-dismissable'> </div> <div class='input-group'> <span class='input-group-addon'><i class='fa fa-user'></i></span> <input type='text' class='form-control' name='user' placeholder='Username'> </div> <span class='help-block'></span> <div class='input-group'> <span class='input-group-addon'><i class='fa fa-lock'></i></span> <input type='password' class='form-control' name='pass' placeholder='Password'> </div> <span class='help-block'></span> <input class='returnUrl' type='hidden' name='returnUrl' value='[[+request_uri]]' /> <input class='loginLoginValue' type='hidden' name='service' value='login' /> <button class='btn btn-lg btn-primary btn-block' type='submit' name='login_submit' value='Login'>Login</button> </form> </div> </div> <div class='row omb_row-sm-offset-3'> <div class='col-xs-12 col-sm-3'> <label class='checkbox'> <input type='checkbox' name='rememberme' value='1' checked='checked'>Remember Me </label> </div> <div class='col-xs-12 col-sm-3'> <p class='omb_forgotPwd'> <a href='[[~5]]'>Forgot password?</a> </p> </div> </div>" ; //Check if user is already logged in - redirect to if($user->isLoggedin()) { // user is already logged in, so they don't need to be here $session->redirect("/"); } //Check if submit is issued if($input->post->login_submit) { /*check for login before outputting markup if($input->post->user && $input->post->pass) { */ $user = $sanitizer->username($input->post->user); $pass = $input->post->pass; var_dump($user->user_activation); /*if(strcmp($user->user_activation, 'test') == 0){ /*if($user->user_activation != 0) { $login_errors .= "Sorry, but you need to activate your account!"; $out .= $form; } elseif($session->login($user, $pass)) { // login successful $session->redirect("/"); } else { $login_errors .= "Username or Password is incorrect"; $out .= $form; } */ } else { $out .= $form; } ?> <?php include("./head.inc"); ?> <?php include("./navbar_login.inc"); ?> <div class="container"> <div><?php echo $login_errors; ?></div> <?php echo $out; ?> </div> <?php include ("./foot.inc"); ?> <?php include ("./java.inc"); ?>

I see what the problem is now, it always returns NULL, because it cannot access the user field. I guess it doesn't now which user you want to access. Doing a var_dump($user->user_activation); returns NULL

Lol I really am such a PHP newbie, thanks for all your help. What happens is the following: During registration a activation code is set for the user. $p = new Password(); $activation = $p->randomBase64String(100); // 100=length of string $activation_code = $config->httpHost."/activation/?user=".$username."&hash=".$activation; Then an email is send to the user with the activation link, when clicked the below is executed. $activate_username = $sanitizer->text($_GET['user']); $activate_hash = $sanitizer->text($_GET['hash']); if(wire("users")->get($activate_username)->id) { if(strcmp(wire("users")->get($activate_username)->user_activation, $activate_hash) == 0 || wire("users")->get($activate_username)->user_activation == 0) { echo "Your account has been activated!<br><br>"; $activate_user = wire("users")->get($activate_username); $activate_user->of(false); $activate_user->user_activation = "0"; $activate_user->save(); } else { echo "There was an error activating your account! Please contact us!<br><br>"; } } else { echo "Sorry, but that we couldn't find your account in our database!<br><br>"; } This then changed the value to 0. Should I change this, or could I check against that value of 0? thanks again for your help.

It is a text field added to the systems default user template.

If I change if($user->user_activation != 0) { echo "Sorry, but you need to activate your account!"; } TO if($user->user_activation == 0) { echo "Sorry, but you need to activate your account!"; } Then no users can login, even if that field does == 0. Does anyone have any ideas?

I have now changed my code to the below, so the form displays, but it does not stop the user from logging in if user_activation != 0. Any ideas? I have checked the user field in the backend, and it still contains the activation code. <?php $login_errors = ""; $out = ""; $form = "<div class='container'> <div class='omb_login'> <h3 class='omb_authTitle'>Login or <a href='#'>Sign up</a></h3> <div class='row omb_row-sm-offset-3 omb_socialButtons'> <div class='col-xs-4 col-sm-2'> <a href='#' class='btn btn-lg btn-block omb_btn-facebook'> <i class='fa fa-facebook visible-xs'></i> <span class='hidden-xs'>Facebook</span> </a> </div> <div class='col-xs-4 col-sm-2'> <a href='#' class='btn btn-lg btn-block omb_btn-twitter'> <i class='fa fa-twitter visible-xs'></i> <span class='hidden-xs'>Twitter</span> </a> </div> <div class='col-xs-4 col-sm-2'> <a href='#' class='btn btn-lg btn-block omb_btn-google'> <i class='fa fa-google-plus visible-xs'></i> <span class='hidden-xs'>Google+</span> </a> </div> </div> <div class='row omb_row-sm-offset-3 omb_loginOr'> <div class='col-xs-12 col-sm-6'> <hr class='omb_hrOr'> <span class='omb_spanOr'>or</span> </div> </div> <div class='row omb_row-sm-offset-3'> <div class='col-xs-12 col-sm-6'> <form class='omb_loginForm' action='./' accept-charset='UTF-8' autocomplete='off' method='POST'> <div class='alert alert-error fade-in alert-dismissable'> </div> <div class='input-group'> <span class='input-group-addon'><i class='fa fa-user'></i></span> <input type='text' class='form-control' name='user' placeholder='Username'> </div> <span class='help-block'></span> <div class='input-group'> <span class='input-group-addon'><i class='fa fa-lock'></i></span> <input type='password' class='form-control' name='pass' placeholder='Password'> </div> <span class='help-block'></span> <input class='returnUrl' type='hidden' name='returnUrl' value='[[+request_uri]]' /> <input class='loginLoginValue' type='hidden' name='service' value='login' /> <button class='btn btn-lg btn-primary btn-block' type='submit' name='submit' value='Login'>Login</button> </form> </div> </div> <div class='row omb_row-sm-offset-3'> <div class='col-xs-12 col-sm-3'> <label class='checkbox'> <input type='checkbox' name='rememberme' value='1' checked='checked'>Remember Me </label> </div> <div class='col-xs-12 col-sm-3'> <p class='omb_forgotPwd'> <a href='[[~5]]'>Forgot password?</a> </p> </div> </div> </div>" ; // Check if user is already logged in - redirect to if($user->isLoggedin()) { // user is already logged in, so they don't need to be here $session->redirect("/"); } //Check if submit is issued if($input->post->submit) { //check for login before outputting markup if($input->post->user && $input->post->pass) { $user = $sanitizer->username($input->post->user); $pass = $input->post->pass; if($user->user_activation != 0) { $login_errors .= "Sorry, but you need to activate your account!"; $out .= $form; } elseif($session->login($user, $pass)) { // login successful $session->redirect("/"); } } } else { $out .= $form; } ?> <?php include("./head.inc"); ?> <?php include("./navbar.inc"); ?> <div><?php echo $login_errors; ?></div> <?php echo $out; ?> <?php include ("./foot.inc"); ?> <?php include ("./java.inc"); ?>

Hold on, am I not assigning the variables. Sorry this is internal dialogue on the tube. What if I do. $username = $input->post->username

It's saying I have a empty name field, so I'm clearly missing something. Error: Exception: Can't save page 0: /d1scordia8/access/users//: It has an empty 'name' field (in /var/www/www.bommachine.co.uk/wire/core/Pages.php line 604)

So I have created this.... clearly not working, but could anyone point me in the right direction. <?php $form = array( 'full_name' => $input->post->full_name, 'username' => $input->post->username, 'password' => $input->post->password, 'email' => $input->post->email, ); if($input->post->submit) { //create the new user $new_user = new User(); $new_user->of(false); $new_user->name = $username; $new_user->email = $email; $new_user->pass = $password; $new_user->addRole("guest"); $new_user->user_full_name = $full_name; $new_user->save(); $new_user->of(true); } ?> <?php include("./head.inc"); ?> <?php include ("./navbar.inc"); ?> <div class="errors"><?php echo $errors; ?></div> <div class="container"> <div class="row omb_row-sm-offset-3"> <div class="col-xs-12 col-sm-6"> <form class="omb_loginForm" action="./" accept-charset="UTF-8" autocomplete="off" method="POST"> <div class="input-group"> <span class="input-group-addon"><i class="fa fa-user"></i></span> <input type="text" class="form-control" name="username" placeholder="Username"> </div> <div class="input-group"> <span class="input-group-addon"><i class="fa fa-user"></i></span> <input type="text" class="form-control" name="full_name" placeholder="Full Name"> </div> <div class="input-group"> <span class="input-group-addon"><i class="fa fa-envelope"></i></span> <input type="text" class="form-control" name="email" placeholder="Email"> </div> <span class="help-block"></span> <div class="input-group"> <span class="input-group-addon"><i class="fa fa-lock"></i></span> <input type="password" class="form-control" name="password" placeholder="Password"> </div> <span class="help-block"></span> <input class="loginLoginValue" type="hidden" name="submit" value="submit" /> <button class="btn btn-lg btn-primary btn-block" type="submit" name="submit" value="register">Register</button> </form> </div> </div> </div> <?php include("./foot.inc"); ?> <?php include ("./java.inc"); ?>
