Thank you so much. Marking this one as resolved. * Cheers, Daniel * Forum: [Plugins](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/plugins-and-hacks/) In reply to: [[Invoices for WooCommerce] Do not send invoice to customer?](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/do-not-send-invoice-to-customer/) * Thread Starter [Dev49.net](https://wordpress.org/support/users/dev49net/) * (@dev49net) * [10 years, 8 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/do-not-send-invoice-to-customer/#post-6688462) * Great, thank you so much. Looking forward to the next update. Already rated your plugin, works really well. What I love the most is the beatufiul invoice template, one of the most eye-catching invoice templates I’ve seen. * Good luck with development and future projects. * Forum: [Plugins](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/plugins-and-hacks/) In reply to: [[Invoices for WooCommerce] Do not send invoice to customer?](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/do-not-send-invoice-to-customer/) * Thread Starter [Dev49.net](https://wordpress.org/support/users/dev49net/) * (@dev49net) * [10 years, 8 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/do-not-send-invoice-to-customer/#post-6688449) * Up? 🙂 I took a look at your code and actually it seems to be very easy to implement. Adding this in `105` line of `class-bewpi-admin-settings-general.php` seems to do the trick: * ``` array( 'name' => __( 'Do not send invoice to customer', $this->textdomain ), 'value' => 'do_not_send_invoice' ) ``` * No additional code seems to be required, since the email sending method looks for the match in the option value, and `do_not_send_invoice` does not match any order status, therefore email is not sent, just as I need. * Any chance of implementing this in the core, so I can easily update the plugin? 🙂 * Forum: [Reviews](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/reviews/) In reply to: [[BuddyPress First Letter Avatar] Great Plugin and Great Customer Support](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/works-but-with-problems-1/) * Plugin Author [Dev49.net](https://wordpress.org/support/users/dev49net/) * (@dev49net) * [10 years, 8 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/works-but-with-problems-1/#post-8023954) * You have every right to post any review you think is right. I am just asking you to help me make the plugin better instead of criticizing just because you are not able to make it work the way you wish. * It’s not a paid service, it’s a community work. I did my part by developing the plugin and helping all the users out there, now you do your part and help me make it better for everyone. Don’t just be critical – explain the problem in the Support section with as much details as possible and work with me to make it work the way you want. You are part of the community just like everyone else with WordPress installation. * Give me a chance to help you instead of posting a negative rating. What you did does not help me, it does not help you and it does not help the community, so what’s the point? * Did my plugin break your site? Cost you a money loss? Has your website been hacked? Did you experience a flood of spam? Or maybe it leaked some personal data from your site? If none of these happened, I don’t think it deserves a negative rating. Instead, I think it deserves help from you to make it work better. And we will make it work better for you, if only you show some willingness to help with its development by making a support request first and not criticizing it. * The plugin works fast and supports Gravatars. If it doesn’t work for you this way, there must be some conflict in your environment, which I’d gladly investigate if only you allow me to. * Kind regards, Daniel Wroblewski * Forum: [Reviews](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/reviews/) In reply to: [[WP First Letter Avatar] it works](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/doenst-work-properly-with-buddypress/) * Plugin Author [Dev49.net](https://wordpress.org/support/users/dev49net/) * (@dev49net) * [10 years, 8 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/doenst-work-properly-with-buddypress/#post-8023953) * Thank you for changing your rating, I appreciate that. * If you have a site without BuddyPress and would like to have fancy avatars on it, I’m sure you will be happy with this plugin. * Kind regards, Daniel Wroblewski * Forum: [Reviews](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/reviews/) In reply to: [[BuddyPress First Letter Avatar] Great Plugin and Great Customer Support](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/works-but-with-problems-1/) * Plugin Author [Dev49.net](https://wordpress.org/support/users/dev49net/) * (@dev49net) * [10 years, 8 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/works-but-with-problems-1/#post-8023941) * Hello again. * Ratings section is not a Support section. Here is a link to Support section – [BuddyPress First Letter Avatar Support](https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/buddypress-first-letter-avatar). * Please change your ratings on both of my plugins first and start a support thread. To make it easier for me to recognize the problem, it would be great if in the support thread you include a link to your website. If for some reason you do not want to publicly share your website address, you can send it to me privately to my email – `info`[at]`dev49`[dot]`net` * Other things that will be useful: 1. Screenshot of my plugin configuration screen 2. Screenshot or list of active plugins in your WordPress (maybe some of them is changing WordPress/BuddyPress behavior in a manner that prevents my plugin from working properly) * Kind regards, Daniel Wroblewski * Forum: [Reviews](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/reviews/) In reply to: [[WP First Letter Avatar] it works](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/doenst-work-properly-with-buddypress/) * Plugin Author [Dev49.net](https://wordpress.org/support/users/dev49net/) * (@dev49net) * [10 years, 8 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/doenst-work-properly-with-buddypress/#post-8023940) * Hello, * I honestly don’t know what you were trying to achieve with this rating. Did you want to motivate me by posting a 2-star review? Try posting a 1-star review instead, maybe it would motivate me even more? 🙂 I don’t think it’s how open source community should work. It’s a community where poeple do things for each other for free – they spend their time working on things that will help everyone. * Please take a look at tabs that are available at the top. If you have a problem, use Support tab. Here is a link – [WP First Letter Avatar Support](https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/wp-first-letter-avatar). * WordPress is powering millions of site. It’s impossible to make a plugin compatible with every possible configuration. That’s what Support section is for. User reports a problem and developer tries to make it compatible, again, free of charge. * BuddyPress completely changes the behavior of avatars on the site. That’s why I developed a separate plugin for BuddyPress. I see you already noticed it, but it doesn’t work for you, but again, instead of starting a support thread, you sent a rating… I don’t know how to react to this, really. * Forum: [Plugins](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/plugins-and-hacks/) In reply to: [[BuddyPress First Letter Avatar] Same Letter for everyone](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/same-letter-for-everyone/) * Plugin Author [Dev49.net](https://wordpress.org/support/users/dev49net/) * (@dev49net) * [10 years, 9 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/same-letter-for-everyone/#post-6638260) * Great, thanks for letting me know.

Most likely here it is trying to take the letter from the **alt** attribute in avatar’s** img **tag. What is the alt attribute in these avatars? If there is none, my plugin will take the letter of the logged in user. Usually in BuddyPress the **alt ** attribute for avatars is **Profile picture of XXX** or **Profile photo of XXX**. * Kind regards, Daniel Wroblewski * Forum: [Plugins](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/plugins-and-hacks/) In reply to: [[WP First Letter Avatar] Integration with Ultimate Member plugin?](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/integration-with-ultimate-member-plugin/) * Plugin Author [Dev49.net](https://wordpress.org/support/users/dev49net/) * (@dev49net) * [10 years, 9 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/integration-with-ultimate-member-plugin/#post-6621661) * Hi there, I haven’t tested my plugin with Ultimate Member and unfortunately, currently I don’t have much time to look into it. If Ultimate Member plugin is doing something to user avatars, maybe try to experiment with my plugin filter priority? Go to my plugin settings and change the Filter priority value from 10 to 9. * Forum: [Plugins](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/plugins-and-hacks/) In reply to: [[WP First Letter Avatar] Why not just use a font and some CSS?](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/why-not-just-use-a-font-and-some-css/) * Plugin Author [Dev49.net](https://wordpress.org/support/users/dev49net/) * (@dev49net) * [10 years, 10 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/why-not-just-use-a-font-and-some-css/#post-6559279) * Sure thing. You’re totally right, when using just the letters, it seems that the best way to do it is to use CSS/fonts/vectors. It would also give me much more flexibility, for example randomizing the background color, letter width, even font. The whole thing would be fully customizable. Unfortunately, it’s just not as reliable as using the PNGs, so things will have to stay the way they are for at least some time. * Cheers, Daniel * Forum: [Plugins](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/plugins-and-hacks/) In reply to: [[WP First Letter Avatar] Why not just use a font and some CSS?](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/why-not-just-use-a-font-and-some-css/) * Plugin Author [Dev49.net](https://wordpress.org/support/users/dev49net/) * (@dev49net) * [10 years, 10 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/why-not-just-use-a-font-and-some-css/#post-6559254) * Hi, Thanks for your input. * Using this method would not be that easy to maintain compatibility with all themes. I did some experiments and it turned out that it’s just much safer to go with a regular method of replacing the avatars with images and the price to pay with server resources is not that high after all. I still plan to integrate it as an additional experimental feature, but it’s difficult to say when exactly. * While it’s safe to say that CSS+font approach is more reasonable way to do it, I wanted to make sure that nobody has any problems with it. And the best way to ensure this is to replace WP avatar, rather than redo the mechanism entirely. The server load caused by my avatars is minimal. The regular avatar size is less than 500 bytes, thanks to tinypng compression. Usually we don’t have more than 4 or 5 avatars on one page, so that’s 2,5kB, which I think is acceptable. * If you would like to try this out, you can fork my plugin, add this feature and see what comes out of it. WPFLA is available on GitHub – [https://github.com/Dev49net/wp-first-letter-avatar](https://github.com/Dev49net/wp-first-letter-avatar). * I’m marking this one as resolved, just to keep my Support threads clean, but we can freely talk about this idea further here. * Cheers, Daniel * Forum: [Plugins](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/plugins-and-hacks/) In reply to: [[BuddyPress First Letter Avatar] Performance / Cache](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/performance-cache/) * Plugin Author [Dev49.net](https://wordpress.org/support/users/dev49net/) * (@dev49net) * [10 years, 10 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/performance-cache/#post-6518364) * Hi, Thanks for your kind words. * Expiration date is something that is specified in server configuration, not a plugin itself. Please take a look at this StackOverflow thread: [http://webmasters.stackexchange.com/questions/5265/how-do-i-set-expiration-headers-for-css-js-and-images](http://webmasters.stackexchange.com/questions/5265/how-do-i-set-expiration-headers-for-css-js-and-images). The suggested way to do it is to set expiration date for all png/css/js/etc files in .htaccess. * Please also take these words into consideration: * > Have in mind that these hints are recommendable but not absolute truth. They > are more to save you a bandwidth than to speed up your website . So if you > have a low traffic to your site do not worry too much about this. * So even setting expiration date to all your static image files will not improve your performance too much. * Kind regards, Daniel Wroblewski * Forum: [Reviews](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/reviews/) In reply to: [[WP First Letter Avatar] Works fine with wpDiscuz](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/works-fine-with-wpdiscuz/) * Plugin Author [Dev49.net](https://wordpress.org/support/users/dev49net/) * (@dev49net) * [10 years, 10 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/works-fine-with-wpdiscuz/#post-7998046) * And thank you for creating such a wonderful comment system 🙂 Viewing 15 replies - 121 through 135 (of 147 total) [←](https://wordpress.org/support/users/dev49net/replies/page/8/?output_format=md) [1](https://wordpress.org/support/users/dev49net/replies/?output_format=md) [2](https://wordpress.org/support/users/dev49net/replies/page/2/?output_format=md) [3](https://wordpress.org/support/users/dev49net/replies/page/3/?output_format=md)… [8](https://wordpress.org/support/users/dev49net/replies/page/8/?output_format=md) 9 [10](https://wordpress.org/support/users/dev49net/replies/page/10/?output_format=md) [→](https://wordpress.org/support/users/dev49net/replies/page/10/?output_format=md)
