Looks like a great plugin is this was resolved. * [http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/avatar-manager/](http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/avatar-manager/) Viewing 15 replies - 1 through 15 (of 15 total) * Plugin Author [Cătălin Dogaru](https://wordpress.org/support/users/cdog/) * (@cdog) * [13 years, 2 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/fatal-error-686/#post-3579027) * Hello Jessica, * Thank you for reporting. It may be a problem with your current WordPress install as the submit_button() function is defined in wp-admin/includes/template.php. Try reinstalling from a fresh download of WordPress. * Please let me know if it helps. * Best regards, Cătălin Dogaru * Thread Starter [Jessica](https://wordpress.org/support/users/jessshailes/) * (@jessshailes) * [13 years, 2 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/fatal-error-686/#post-3579166) * Hi I tried re installing wordpress and unfortunately it’s still there. I checked the file you mention and the ‘submit_button()’ function appears to be there but I’m not sure how it’s supposed to look. At the moment mentions of it are as follows: * ``` function get_submit_button( $text = null, $type = 'primary large', $name = 'submit', $wrap = true, $other_attributes = null ) { if ( ! is_array( $type ) ) $type = explode( ' ', $type ); ``` * `$r .= get_submit_button( __( 'Delete' ), 'deletemeta small', "deletemeta[{$entry[' meta_id']}]", false, array( 'data-wp-lists' => "delete:the-list:meta-{$entry[' meta_id']}::_ajax_nonce=$delete_nonce" ) );` `$r .= get_submit_button( __( ' Update' ), 'updatemeta small', "meta-{$entry['meta_id']}-submit", false, array(' data-wp-lists' => "add:the-list:meta-{$entry['meta_id']}::_ajax_nonce-add-meta =$update_nonce" ) );` * ```
'newmeta-submit', 'data-wp-lists' => 'add:the-list:newmeta' ) ); ?>
``` * `` * ```

It should work out of the box with a fresh install of WordPress 3.5 or higher. * Have you tried disabling all plugins, except Avatar Manager?

Please upload something more substantial. This error could also be caused by uploads being disabled in your php.ini or by post_max_size being defined as smaller than upload_max_filesize * fyi i’m using custom page to display the profile page in blogs, before this; with the ‘submit_button()’ function it total give me fatal error. * Plugin Author [Cătălin Dogaru](https://wordpress.org/support/users/cdog/) * (@cdog) * [13 years, 1 month ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/fatal-error-686/#post-3579240) * Hi vincentweb2, * Please make sure that you have set the `enctype` attribute of your form. It specifies how the form-data should be encoded when submitting it to the server. The `multipart/ form-data` value is required when you are using forms that have a file upload control. * Avatar Manager uses the following JavaScript code on profile pages: `jQuery('# your-profile' ).attr( 'enctype', 'multipart/form-data' );` * Please let me know if it helps. * Thank you, Cătălin Dogaru * [vincentweb2](https://wordpress.org/support/users/vincentweb2/) * (@vincentweb2) * [13 years, 1 month ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/fatal-error-686/#post-3579241) * hi Cătălin Dogaru, thank you for your response. it always works in wp-admin/profile. php but dont work in the PAGE. Isn’t Avatar Manager will take care of the enctype? and also i added encoding for IE which is also work; what i mean is the uploaded avatar will work & show nicely in wp-admin/profile.php & Page. what dont work is i cant upload or edit avatar in the Page. * as the Page(custom); i’m using the 3rd party plugin. i contacted the plugin’s author which he reply nothing to do with his plugin. i’m not a programmer 🙂 but i know both are great plugins! i tried conclusion it failed. * From Vincent * Thread Starter [Jessica](https://wordpress.org/support/users/jessshailes/) * (@jessshailes) * [13 years, 1 month ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/fatal-error-686/#post-3579242) * Thanks does appear to be working for me now… * Jess * [Artem Frolov](https://wordpress.org/support/users/dikiy_forester/) * (@dikiy_forester) * [13 years ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/fatal-error-686/#post-3579256) * Hello, Cătălin! * First, I must say, great work on this plugin! * We are work with themes by Appthemes, which uses both profile editing pages in the frontend (separated template for PAGE) and in backend (standard admin profile page). And so we have same error indicated in the first post. * In my view, first problem is that the function submit_button() located in file template.php, which loaded only in backend, but not in frontend. * Second problem we found, is that avatar form adapted for use only in the backend. ( avatar-manager.php v1.3.0 lines 644 – 655 ). * Many users can not use your great plugin is only because of these problems. So maybe, can you review logic for frontend using? * Thank You! * [Artem Frolov](https://wordpress.org/support/users/dikiy_forester/) * (@dikiy_forester) * [13 years ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/fatal-error-686/#post-3579257) * Hello! * I made ​​a few changes, and now the plugin works fine in the frontend.
