ok removed the if block, but still willy nillya?￠ on the grav display…

yeah ?? im doin that…. thanks for all the help man let me try what you just suggested….

i think ultimately I would like to be able to impliment the gravatar independent from this plugin, just be able to show a gravatar where ever commenter info may be, eg, in a sidebar etc…

hope i did this right man.. heres the link to the plugin code

huh very strange man.. u know that didnt make a lick a difference…..

still showin up unpredictably….

well thanks alot for your help mtdv, that code indeed works with no php errors, just still get unpredictable gravatar results, eg, on the index page it shows the default gravatar for everyone, on a post page it shows my custom gravatar for me as well as other posters, and on other posts it will show my custom gravatar and no gravatar for other commenters.

is there a way maybe I could write the gravatar code by itself apart from the get commenters plugin?

any takers? ??

using single quotes works but double does not, while the single ones work could it be borking the way the gravatar gets the author info?

using your first code:

if (!empty($commenter->comment_author_url)) {
echo '<img src= "';
gravatar("G", 50, "https://www.mysite.com/graphics/grav.gif");
echo '" alt="" />'; }

works but the gravatar results are sporadic as noted above

hmm I get a parse error with this code

if (!empty($commenter->comment_author_url)) {
echo "<img src= "";
gravatar("G", 50, "https://www.mysite.com/graphics/grav.gif");
echo "" alt="" />";
}

“Parse error: parse error, unexpected T_CONSTANT_ENCAPSED_STRING, expecting ‘,’ or ‘;’ in /home/aenonf2/public_html/afd/blog/wp-content/plugins/get-commenters.php on line 106”

thanks a ton man…. never would have figured that out…

only thing now is im getting erratic results on what gravatar is showing up…. im using this code in a sidebar and when the main index page is viewed I get the generic gravatar (used for commenters with no gravatar) for all commenters. then when viewing an actual post I can see my custom gravatar shows up, but in some instances it is also being used for other commenters, and in other cases other commenters have no image at all…..

could it be how the gravatar code is written in your example or maybe something else?

thanks again woot!

i dropped spam karma as it giving me false positives left and right… i tried various settings as far as leniency all with the same result of feeding commenters the captcha. I couldnt figure out how to get it working so i went back to spaminator….

thanks nm will do…..yeah chris does it so well incorporating the users gravatar too..

nice!

excellent thank you very much Kafkaesqui
