The BuddyPress XProfile module does not support Image type fields. The BuddyPress XProfile Custom Image Field (BPXPIF) plugin allows you to add fields of type Image to a BuddyPress user profile. Images uploaded during User Registration can be viewed on the Manage Signups screen to allow the Site Administrator to review them before activating a new user account. The BPXPIF plugin has a number of action hooks that allow theme and plugin developers to modify its behavior. This plugin requires BuddyPress minimum version 1.5 and has been tested up to BuddyPress version 14.5.2 Translations English – default Spanish translation by Andrew Kurtis – WebHostingHub
