Request to add support for syncing of built-in WordPress User Profile Picture with CiviCRM Contact Image Field #50

Hi,

Profile Sync already keeps the First Name, Last Name, Email Address and Website fields of a WordPress user profile in sync with the corresponding CiviCRM contact fields, however is it possible to add syncing between the CiviCRM Contact Image field and the WordPress user profile picture?

Kind regards,
Vivien

Hi @github-wcha - there isn't really such a thing as a "WordPress user profile picture" (at least not without a plugin) because WordPress uses Gravatars by default.

It would be possible to show user Gravatars when viewing CiviCRM contacts, of course, and the reverse sync (i.e. uploading a Contact Image to CiviCRM and showing it when get_avatar() is called) would also be possible... with some development work. However, this is complicated by the presence of plugins which offer profile picture uploads.

FYI if you have ACF Pro installed on your website, you can already do this.
