the Gravatar plugin for textpattern
Hi!
I installed the plugin for gravatar, but it only shows the gravatar logo. Does anyone use this plugin too?

Re: the Gravatar plugin for textpattern
Which one? It’s better to post questions about plugins in the plugin thread (just use the search to find it).

Oh, I think it was closed accidentally, I have re-opened it (link). Though the plugin is not maintained anymore, its users may be still subscribed to the topic, so maybe someone can help you out, if you post there.

Re: the Gravatar plugin for textpattern
Hi Els!
Thank you for re-open the thread.
I’ve found out this plugin in this link:
http://code.google.com/p/textpattern-plugins/wiki/GlxGravatar
It was updated on Oct 11, 2010.
I will post a topic in the glxgravatar thread.
Thank you again.

Well, if you don’t get a reply here, you can always try and file a new issue there.

Yes, I do and it is working fine for me, but you should remember that it will only display an avatar for a user if that user has registered one at www.gravatar.com otherwise it will simply show the “default” avatar that you are seeing. The user’s avatar will be registered against the user’s email address.
You can create a “default” avatar yourself if you don’t like the Gravatar version but you need to add it to the tag. Instructions are in the plugin’s help file.

Hi Stuart!
Could you copy and paste your code to me (us)?

Re: the Gravatar plugin for textpattern
This is something I’m currently using:-
<txp:glx_gravatar size="40" class="avatar photo" alt='<txp:comment_name link="0" />' />Naturally you can change the gravatar display size (40), the classes and the alt to your own requirements.
You can also add default="path/to/default.jpg" to use a default avatar of your own. Maybe something site-related.
I am using the “current” version, v2009.3, rather than the development version (it does say the development version might break).

Re: the Gravatar plugin for textpattern
Hi Stuart!
You forgot to tell me in what form you put this line.
This is what I have in my “comments display” form:
<h2 id=”<txp:text item=“comment” />”><txp:comments_invite textonly=“1” showalways=“1” showcount=“0” /></h2>
<txp:glx_gravatar />
<txp:comments />
<txp:if_comments_preview>
<div id=“cpreview”>
<txp:comments_preview />
</div>
</txp:if_comments_preview>
<txp:if_comments_allowed>
<txp:comments_form isize=“25” msgcols=“45” msgrows=“15” />
<txp:else />
<p><txp:text item=“comments_closed” /></p>
</txp:if_comments_allowed>

Re: the Gravatar plugin for textpattern
It needs to go into the comments form template Alexandre.
The comments_display form template simply controls the overall display and mechanics of the comments and comment_form blocks.
The gravatar needs to be in the comments form itself as that is where it picks up the email address of the commenter.
