i tried one of the avatar plugins, but haven’t had much success with it. is there a way to change the default avatar… either via the code or is there a plugin that actually works?

thanks much!

specifically to bring over the users avatars from wordpress…

Gravatar or Bavatars.

I think it is gravatar, although I uploaded a custom default gravatar that is local and the users avatars will be saved locally as well.

i loaded bavatars yesterday, but no luck, and i couldn’t find a plugin called “gravatar” in bbpress. any ideas?

Gravatars are built in to bbPress 1.0.x. You just need to enable them in your admin panel, then your template needs to be set up to display them.

The user’s gravatar will be displayed on your site if the email at gravatar.com and the email they registered with on your forum are the same.

ah… no wonder i couldnt find it. is there a way to do this with the uploadable wordpress gravitars though? and to customize the default?

thanks for your help!
