   How can I enable avatars for authors, mods, and admins only. I want gravatar avatars to be enabled for authors+ and everyone else to be left blank, is this possible? Or no.

   Please provide the code from your theme's template file that deals with displaying gravatars/avatars (likely single.php), just the area relating to the avatar (3-4 lines above, down to 3-4 lines below).

   Also please use a pastebin, or alternatively just ensure code is posted inside backticks as shown in the reply box.

   Possible yes, but far easier if i can see the code you have presently..

   I do apologise, it should actually be comments.php or functions.php depending on whether you use a custom callback (function) for comments..

   Figured it would be a custom callback, it was in the functions file.

   Backup first, then replace your functions.php code with the following.

   Feel free to examine, i've only made changes to the comments callback function "art_comment"..

   NOTE: Make sure to copy the code from the secondary section that doesn't include the line numbers (further down the page).

   Also when you do, update this area..
   

   $allowed_avatar = array(
   		'administrator' ,
   		'editor' ,
   		'author' ,
   		'contributor' ,
   		'subscriber'
   	);

   Remove the roles that are NOT allowed avatars. Make sure the last item does not have a comma following (as seen currently with subscriber)..

   For example if you wanted avatars for admin, editor and author only, it would look like so..
   

   $allowed_avatar = array(
   		'administrator' ,
   		'editor' ,
   		'author'
   	);

   Code was tested under PHP 5, MySQL 4 and using WP 2.8.6.

   Hope that helps.. ;)
