[user-photo] Remove photo approval

In the Dashboard / Manage / User Photo, I made sure that the following were set to none:
– Notify this administrator by email when user photo needs approval
– Require user photo moderation for all users at or below this level

Sorry that was Settings / User Photo (not Manage)

I have those same setting but still I have to accept every user photo.
I’d like to let people just have whatever photo they want without my aproval.

Hi,
I’m also interested in this. I have the same challenge.

Hi PPl ,,,
I’ve Just Found A Way To Remove The Photo Approval ,,,
You Have To Play a Little With The Plugin Code
-Go To Plugins and Click On Edit Beside The User Photo Plugin
-Search For The Following Code:
—————————————————————–
#Update usermeta if($current_user->user_level <= get_option(‘userphoto_level_moderated’)){update_usermeta($userID, “userphoto_approvalstatus”, USERPHOTO_PENDING);
—————————————————————–

-Now Change “USERPHOTO_PENDING” In The End To “USERPHOTO_APPROVED”

So That The Code Becomes :
—————————————————————–
#Update usermeta if($current_user->user_level <= get_option(‘userphoto_level_moderated’)){update_usermeta($userID, “userphoto_approvalstatus”, USERPHOTO_APPROVED);
—————————————————————–

I’ve Created 2 Subscriber Users For Testing ,,, No Approval Is Needed Anymore

Hope That Was Helpful ??

I dislike editing the plugins, ’cause problems on updates… I created instead a new plugin with only these few lines:

add_action( 'profile_update' , 'auto_approve_photo' , 1000 );
function auto_approve_photo() {
	global $current_user;
	if ( defined( 'IS_PROFILE_PAGE' ) ) {
		update_usermeta( $current_user->ID , 'userphoto_approvalstatus' , USERPHOTO_APPROVED );
	}
}

Appending action with priority 1000 make the update running after userphoto_profile_update() but before userphoto_display_selector_fieldset(), so no warning about approval will be displayed to user!

Hey belinde,
I know this is going to be a stupid question… but how can I create a new plugin with that information you provided?

I created a php file with a header and license info (put your information and a link to this article in it) and then added your above code, but upon uploading and activating, it just showed the code at the top of the screen and broke my site. I know I’m just missing something little, but the wordpress tutorials on making plugins that are out there weren’t that helpful.

Thanks!
