Question

I\'m trying to add a \'percentage completed so far\' progress bar to avatar uploads in BuddyPress. The aim is to stop users navigating away from the page before the upload is co

Answer 1

You need to inject the progress bar.

I think the only way is to over-ride the function bp_core_avatar_handle_upload using the filter hook apply_filters( 'bp_core_pre_avatar_handle_upload' etc. )

You'll end up duplicating most of the function but you should be able to add your progress bar code.

If you get this working, you should submit it as an enhancement ticket; it's a good idea.
