Not Working With Buddypress Update

I can confirm this. BuddyPress First Letter Avatar overrides all the BP avatars on Twenty Sixteen theme after the latest BP update. (Everything was OK before the update).

Dear @danielagw
please, any chance this will be fixed?

Dear @valery-kondakoff / @wslover317
did you find the fix please?

Thank you :))

Thanks a lot @wslover317

Doesn’t look like @danielagw is still working on it 🙁

I’ve got this issue as well, but I’m too impatient to wait for the developer to come up with a solution, so I went digging.

1. Buddypress 2.9.0 does a deep overhaul of the bp-core-avatars.php
2. BuddyPress First Letter Avatar seems to be affected by the code changes

After a bit of experimentation, I was able to restore the normal functionality to my site by commenting out:

add_filter('get_avatar', array($this, 'set_comment_avatar'), $this->filter_priority, 6); on line 139 of the buddypress-first-letter-avatar.php file

This line is commented as:

// this will only be used for anonymous WordPress comments (from non-users

My site does not allow anonymous comments, so there are no ill effects that I can see. YMMV
