User Profile Picture gives any user a custom profile picture, a local avatar chosen from the WordPress Media Library, instead of their Gravatar.
Choose the picture on the user’s profile screen with the standard WordPress media uploader. From then on it appears everywhere WordPress shows that user’s avatar: comments, author boxes, the admin toolbar, the Users list, and any theme or plugin that uses get_avatar() .
Features
- Custom profile picture for any user, chosen or uploaded with the native WordPress media uploader.
- Shown everywhere avatars appear: comments, post authors, the admin toolbar, the Users screen, and themes and plugins that call get_avatar() .
- Pictures are served from your own site, so users don’t need a Gravatar account.
- Users without a custom picture keep their Gravatar or your default avatar.
- Keeps the size, alt text, CSS classes and lazy loading your theme asks for.
- Set the picture when creating a user on Users > Add New.
- Lightweight: no settings page, and the media uploader loads only on the user screens.
- Works with block themes, classic themes and multisite.
- For developers: the dew_profile_img() function and the dpp_avatar_classes filter.
How it works
- 01Go to Users and open a user’s profile, or your own.
- 02Under Profile Picture , click Upload and choose or upload an image.
- 03Click Update Profile . The picture now replaces that user’s Gravatar across your site.
Profile pictures are set by administrators (users who can edit other users), for any user including themselves.
