Support » Fixing WordPress » Photo by my post…

  • I want my photo to show up by my post but can’t find a good way to do that. I don’t want to have to have to insert my photo everytime or for my users. I want the user photo to show on the post automatically.

    Anyone know what plugin will do this easily?

    OK, that site makes no sense whatsoever. Sure it allows you to upload an image but there are NO notes or instructions on how to make it appear on the site

    WordPress has gravatar support built in. Just add a get_avatar() call to your theme where you want the photo to appear.

    Read this:
    http://codex.wordpress.org/Using_Gravatars

    If your users sign up on gravatar.com, then they will automatically get their avatar showing up here, on your site, on their comments… on any WordPress blog, basically.

    OK, i found it and installed it and my Gravatar is showing up in my posts and also my pages. Don’t want it showing up in my pages. I checked the box to exclude from pages but it’s still showing up in the pages. Is there a way to remove it from the pages?

    What box? There is no box to check anywhere.

    Did you add the code to your theme, like that article describes? Or are you using a plugin?

    Because we can’t help you with the plugin, only with the stuff built into WordPress.

    Even if i use the built in plugin for wordpress, i still can’t figure out how to have my photo show up in the posts. It shows up in the comments but not the posts. Is there a way to have it show up in the posts?

    I’ve done away with the Gravatar plugin because there are some bugs in it. So, hence why i’m using the built in one now.

    To have it show up in the posts, put something like this into your Loop:
    <?php echo get_avatar( get_the_author_id(), 80 ); ?>
