Upload avatar for different user

    I would like to include the shortcode in the frontend, but the chosen image should be used for a different user i define.
    For example this could work like so:

    [avatar_upload user=”123″] where 123 is the user ID.

    Of course this can only be used if the logged in user is allowed to edit the specified user,
    if ( current_user_can( 'edit_user', 123 ) ...

    Would be awesome if you could add that! Thank you!

    OK, i figured it out myself, it’s pretty easy to do, that’s what I did:

    check for 'user' in $atts in wpua_edit_shortcode after is_user_logged_in()

    // Update a different user?
$user = $current_user;
if (
  !empty( $atts['user'] ) &&
  is_numeric( $atts['user'] ) &&
  get_userdata( $atts['user'] ) != false &&
  current_user_can( 'edit_user', $atts['user'] )
) {
  $user = get_userdata( $atts['user'] );
}

    and change every $current_user to $user.

    Than send the $user or the $user->ID to wpua_edit_form and make the same modifications in that function.

    I can add this functionality to the shortcode in a future version.

    That would be awesome, thanks!

    I’ve added this function to version 1.9.6.
