• Hi.

    I noticed that my forum users are unable to upload avatars.
    They used to be able to.

    I raised the issue with the avatar upload plugin authors who diagnosed it as a problem with my CleanTalk plugin.
    I confirmed they are correct as avatars can be uploaded when the plugin is disabled:

    https://wordpress.org/support/topic/unable-to-upload-avatars/#post-19008916


    Can you help with a fix please?
    I have no real skills so I am hoping an update to the plug in?
    I doubt I am the only one affected.

    Mike.

    I’ve verified your website, registered, and uploaded an avatar.
    It looks like you have disabled CleanTalk Security.

    I disabled this temporarily which has allowed users to upload avatars.

    “Run the Upload Checker module for uploaded files”
    The plugin will scan files uploaded to the WordPress media library for known malicious code with heuristic and signature analysis. If malware found, upload will stop.

    Hello.
    Thank you for reply.

    You are right, this setting affected the loading of avatars.
    “Run the Upload Checker module for uploaded files” – enable/disable checking of all uploaded files to the WordPress media library for malicious code. If malware is found, the upload will stop.
    Full instructions on how to use it are available: https://cleantalk.org/help/security-waf

    I will check with our developers whether the CleanTalk plugin’s behavior for loading avatars via “Simple Local Avatars” is correct. We’ll respond within three business days.
