wp-user-profile-avatar

Using Buddypress and Dynamic User Directory. This plugin works right out of the box!

Without warning, the website will start displaying an email and an info blog with a description of the author below the article. Why?!

WP Version 6.4.3PHP 7.4mysite.com/wp-content/debug.log:[23-Feb-2024 12:03:17 UTC] PHP Fatal error: Maximum execution time of 120 seconds exceeded in /mysite.com/wp-includes/plugin.php on line 398

This plugin was long due for an update (a security one, too) and when it was finally updated it messed up the appearance of the website. Users’ images dissappeared and user name and description was appended redundantly and in ugly fashion after every post, despite being already shown.My solution for this annoying mess was to install Simple Local Avatars (by 10up). This plugin has a tool to migrate from another avatar plugin (Wp User Avatar). It can be tweaked to migrate also all local avatars that are stored in the media library and are called with an id (not the ones that are brought from external URLs): Go to the plugin file named ”class-simple-local-avatars.php” and at line 1529 change ’user_avatar’ to ’_wpupa_attachment_id’. The line should look like this after the change:$meta_key = $wpdb->get_blog_prefix( $blog_id ) . ’_wpupa_attachment_id’;The meta_key field name where the local avatar image id is stored is thus changed to make the migration possible from WP User Profile Avatar. After this, all you need to do is go into Simple Local Avatar settings and look for ”Migrate avatars from WP User Avatar to Simple Local Avatars” andn click on the button. It will only migrate avatars that have local images with ids stored in the meta_key mentioned above, but it works well.You can now deactivate and delete this awfully maintained plugin.For the images called by external urls stored in usermeta meta_key ’_wpupa_url’ I did’t search for an automatic solution, as I only had a few avatars shown like this and I changed them manually with the new plugin.Hope this helps!

The recent update brought unwanted sideeffects, like sudden ugly Author boxes after every post, page and cpt. Why?

Hi team,The plugin was working great until the recent update, this has seem to break my site. Here are the new issues arise after updating:1) Images in media library grid view are gone. You can only see images directly uploaded by yourself and not by other users. But in list view it is still working fine.2) Single post author images missing on all single post typeHope the team can resolve these issues with the next update sooner. Thanks
