Profile avatar not working

Hi @rcwgsy

Where on the front-end isn’t it working? I checked here and it shows the correct image on the admin bar.

When using it dynamically in a post or page.

Hello @rcwgsy

What do you mean with using it dynamically?
If you call the avatar field in a Pods template or simply use get_avatar() within your PHP templates this should work fine.
Please give me more info about your installation and templates so I can try to reproduce your issue.

Cheers, Jory

Add image to post/page with elementor.

Select the user profile picture as a dynamic source.

Profile image will either be the gravatar or standard image.

Hi @rcwgsy,

Check, I’d have to take a look at how Elementor fetches the avatar.

Hi @rcwgsy

I think I’ve found the compatibility issue.
We overwrite the default get_avatar() functionality from WordPress but not the avatar data handlers like get_avatar_url() which Elementor uses.

I’ve already create a patch that should fix this issue.
If you are able, could you test this patch and let me know if it works for you as well?

Hi,

Okay, that’s great thank you.

Where am I installing this?

Hi @rcwgsy

It’s a full plugin download, you can overwrite your current Pods installation.

Cheers, Jory

Got this error on doing so.

Hi @rcwgsy
You’ll have to disable your regular Pods version or overwrite it. You cannot run both at the same time.
Cheers, Jory

Okay, I’ve done that but I am getting a blank area now. Nothing is showing where the image should be.

Hello @rcwgsy

Check, found the issue. If you download it again it should be fixed!

Cheers, Jory

Nope, afraid not. It doesn’t show up in the user editor now either.

What do you mean with user editor?
I changed it so that when you are editing the user “Profile picture” field (WordPress core) it shows the original Gravatar since you have the Pods field to actually edit your Avatar.
It should show up correctly in other locations.

Previously when you uploaded an image to the PODs avatar field it replaced the image (backend only) where the gravatar or a standard avatar would show.

It would not pull correctly dynamically or at all on the front end. Gravatar or the standard avatar would show up instead.

Now the PODs image avatar field shows up in the backend user profile editor, but it doesn’t replace the ‘avatar’ image in the backend. And it certainly doesn’t show up when you select ‘user profile’ from the dynamic fields on the front end.
