Uploading avatar from the frontend

in the codepad link you can find what I am using to edit profile from the front-end. http://codepad.org/QJjDEA7p

The code is working (which I got from How to edit a user profile on the front end? and change some things for me to work correctly).

I have installed Simple Local Avatar plugin to allow avatar uploading, but how can I modify the code to have it also from the front-end ? I found these below, which I tested, showed the upload button, did not showed the current avatar and didn’t let me to change it.

Thank you for your help on this.

do_action('show_user_profile');
do_action('edit_user_profile');

do_action('personal_options_update');
do_action('edit_user_profile_update');

UPDATE

There goes a 50 bounty for a working example. Unfortunately I can not get Bainternet’s example to work that I tested with User Avatar plugin also, and I am really stuck with this issue can’t finding the solution.

  1. You only need to of these hooks show_user_profile to show the extra fields and personal_options_update to update, try:

    <?php
    ob_start();
    include_once("../../../wp-load.php");
    get_header(); 
    
    /* Get user info. */
    
    global $current_user, $wp_roles;
    get_currentuserinfo();
    
    /* Load the registration file. */
    require_once( ABSPATH . WPINC . '/registration.php' );
    
    /* If profile was saved, update profile. */
    if ( 'POST' == $_SERVER['REQUEST_METHOD'] && !empty( $_POST['action'] ) && $_POST['action'] == 'update-user' ) {
    
        /* Update user password. */
        if ( !empty($_POST['pass1'] ) && !empty( $_POST['pass2'] ) ) {
            if ( $_POST['pass1'] == $_POST['pass2'] )
                wp_update_user( array( 'ID' => $current_user->id, 'user_pass' => esc_attr( $_POST['pass1'] ) ) );
            else
                $error = __('The passwords you entered do not match.  Your password was not updated.', 'profile');
        }
    
    
    
        /* Update user information. */
        if ( !empty( $_POST['url'] ) )
            update_usermeta( $current_user->id, 'user_url', esc_url( $_POST['url'] ) );
        if ( !empty( $_POST['email'] ) )
            update_usermeta( $current_user->id, 'user_email', esc_attr( $_POST['email'] ) );
        if ( !empty( $_POST['first-name'] ) )
            update_usermeta( $current_user->id, 'first_name', esc_attr( $_POST['first-name'] ) );
        if ( !empty( $_POST['last-name'] ) )
            update_usermeta($current_user->id, 'last_name', esc_attr( $_POST['last-name'] ) );
        if ( !empty( $_POST['yim'] ) )
            update_usermeta($current_user->id, 'yim', esc_attr( $_POST['yim'] ) );
        if ( !empty( $_POST['description'] ) )
            update_usermeta( $current_user->id, 'description', esc_attr( $_POST['description'] ) );
    
        //extra fields (simple local avatars ....)
            do_action('personal_options_update', $current_user->id);
    
        /* Redirect so the page will show updated info. */
        if ( !$error ) {
    
    
    header("Location: ".$_SERVER['PHP_SELF']);
    
            exit;
    ob_flush();
        }
