Gravatar grabs the user image, downloads it to their servers and serves it from there. Since you are developing locally, Gravatar cannot fetch this image. * If you uncheck “Enable Gravatars” in my plugin settings, the images will not be passed through Gravatar, they will be served directly from your localhost and it will work. * Gravatar needs to be serving the image, because we cannot check whether user has Gravatar or not – so we cannot know wheter to show Gravatar or letter avatar. By passing URL through Gravatar, we are basically saying to Gravatar “if this user has Gravatar -> show gravatar, if not -> show the image located in this URL”. * Marking this one as resolved – not really an issue, just a way things have to work. If you open up your local environment so that Gravatar could access it, it will work. * Kind regards, Daniel Wroblewski - This reply was modified 9 years, 8 months ago by [Dev49.net](https://wordpress.org/support/users/dev49net/). * Forum: [Plugins](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/plugins-and-hacks/) In reply to: [[WP First Letter Avatar] Fix for passing the arguments in the get_avatar filter](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/fix-for-passing-the-arguments-in-the-get_avatar-filter/) * Plugin Author [Dev49.net](https://wordpress.org/support/users/dev49net/) * (@dev49net) * [9 years, 8 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/fix-for-passing-the-arguments-in-the-get_avatar-filter/#post-8428540) * Thank you, released in 2.2.7 🙂 * Forum: [Plugins](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/plugins-and-hacks/) In reply to: [[WP First Letter Avatar] Hebrew letters](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/hebrew-letters/) * Plugin Author [Dev49.net](https://wordpress.org/support/users/dev49net/) * (@dev49net) * [9 years, 8 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/hebrew-letters/#post-8421459) * Hi there, At this point this is not possible.

First thing I would do is to temporary switch to to WordPress base theme, such as Twenty Fifteen for example. Maybe your theme implements some custom comments functions. If it doesn’t help, you should turn your attention to plugins. First you should turn them all off. And then keep turning them on one by one to see which one is causing a conflict. Once we get to the conflicting plugin/ theme, I will be able to see what exactly is happening there. It’s important to start from basics – base theme + no plugins. This setup must be working 🙂 * DW * Forum: [Plugins](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/plugins-and-hacks/) In reply to: [[WP First Letter Avatar] Problem with Use Gravatar Check](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/problem-with-use-gravatar-check/) * Plugin Author [Dev49.net](https://wordpress.org/support/users/dev49net/) * (@dev49net) * [9 years, 11 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/problem-with-use-gravatar-check/#post-7640615) * Hi there, Are you using any other avatar plugin?

I will look into it, however I am having a very busy schedule recently and I do not have enough time to take care of my open source projects. I’ll try to work on the plugin before the end of July, but I cannot make any promises 🙁 This is the first time I am hearing about this error, so maybe you can try to debug it yourself – please try deactivating all plugins except for BuddyPress and BuddyPress First Letter Avatar. Also, please switch your theme to Twenty Fifteen or Twenty Sixteen. If this will get rid of the error, please change the theme to the one you are using and keep activating the plugins you had activated one by one and see if any of them makes the error appear again. Maybe there is some conflicting plugin – we will be able to verify that by doing this procedure. * Kind regards, Daniel Wroblewski * Forum: [Plugins](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/plugins-and-hacks/) In reply to: [[BuddyPress First Letter Avatar] aint working](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/aint-working/) * Plugin Author [Dev49.net](https://wordpress.org/support/users/dev49net/) * (@dev49net) * [10 years ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/aint-working/#post-7559252) * Hi there, Please try deactivating all plugins except for BuddyPress and BuddyPress First Letter Avatar.

There is a folder for each size (48, 96, 128, 256, 512). In each of this folder you need to place your image and name it, for example, new_mystery.png. Then in my plugin settings you need to specify the name as “new_mystery” and everything should be working fine. Please keep in mind that these files will be deleted when my plugin is updated, so it’s best to keep backup. * Kind regards, Daniel Wroblewski * Forum: [Plugins](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/plugins-and-hacks/) In reply to: [[BuddyPress First Letter Avatar] Hide First Letterr on Groups](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/hide-first-letterr-on-groups/) * Plugin Author [Dev49.net](https://wordpress.org/support/users/dev49net/) * (@dev49net) * [10 years, 1 month ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/hide-first-letterr-on-groups/#post-7427261) * That’s great, thanks for letting me know.
