Ok thanks !
i will call my host administrator ??

I’am still getting the same message : Upload Failed! Unable to write the image on server ??

Check the wp-content permissions on the Cpanel

I have Checked the permissions of the wp-content folder , it’s having a full permissions.

just i want to know the directory in which the cover pictures are saved so i can create it manually this problem happens every time i install a plugin that needs to create a folder.

The concept of code :

the code should Add a form with a button to each user profile, it named Follow or Unfollow.

so , it updates the user meta named “following” for the user who clicked the button. So we have to use the user IDs as a serialized array

Then we should use a query for the user meta “following” to get a list of all authors the current user has subscribed to and then query for the posts from these authors.

i get this error: “Catchable fatal error: Object of class WP_User could not be converted to string”,

because i used this code to check if it’s working or not :/

<?php
$user_id = 1;
$key = ‘following’;
$single = true;
$user_last = get_user_meta( $user_id, $key, $single );
echo ‘<p>The ‘. $key . ‘ value for user id ‘ . $user_id . ‘ is: ‘.$user_last . ‘</p>’; ?>

Thank you very much Mr Ryan ??

Mr Ryan , can you tell me please how to write a code for your idea :

A possible solution would be that if a logged-in user (call it user #1) is clicking “follow” on another user’s profile (call it user #2), you record user #2’s ID as meta data on user #1. You can do this via the update_user_meta function. You can then retrieve posts from user #2 by using WP_Query with an author parameter. The author parameter can be an array, so you can get the posts of multiple users that way, too.

Maybe i did not explain the first point clearly ,
i found a plugin called “User Profiles Made Easy” :
https://profileplugin.com

when i press on the author link in the post:

it redirects me to the author profile instead of author posts like this :

i need a code that creates the follow button in the second picture..
sorry i don’t know how to program codes ??

Thanks Mr. Ryan ??

Thanks Mr Ryan ?? ,
* Maybe “Buddypress” or “Users ultra” plugins can create a profile for author..

* each logged-in user can select his favorite authors to follow and they can only see the posts of followed authors.
