Gravatar Not appearing

Have you set your email under Appearance > Customize > Theme > Gravatar Email?

I thought I had the email correct but I went back to double check and I needed to change to lowercase. I fixed that problem and it works! Thank you so much for your help.

Glad that worked! Yes, Gravatars are case-sensitive so they need to exactly match the way you spelled your email when you first set up your Gravatar to be picked up correctly.

Hello dears,

could you please tell me from where the gravatar is taken. I try to set it with several e-mail adresses but it doesn’t work. For best, I would like to customize it with a free chosen picture because i am building the site for someone else. Not for myself! does that work that way? appreciate your help. thank you.

Hi efetack,

After you enter an email address under Appearance > Customize > Theme > Gravatar Email, the theme uses the Gravatar image linked to that email address at https://gravatar.com/ . You can check to see how a particular Gravatar will be displayed by entering the email address here: https://gravatar.com/site/check/

If there isn’t a specific Gravatar you want to use there, you can leave that space blank and just use the theme’s custom header image, instead. Another option might be to set a custom default avatar that is displayed when the email address doesn’t have a Gravatar linked to it. That way you can choose what image is displayed by default, but the person you’re building the site for can always change it to their Gravatar later on if they want.
