You Asked, We Answered

Do I need a Gravatar account to use this plugin?

You don't need an account or API keys to install and activate the plugin. And users only need Gravatar accounts if they want personalized avatars.

Does it work with WordPress multisite?

Yes! The plugin works seamlessly across your entire multisite network.

How does the commenter email notification work?

When someone leaves a comment without a Gravatar, they receive one polite email inviting them to create an avatar. You can customize this message or turn it off completely.

Is the WooCommerce integration automatic?

Yes. If you have WooCommerce installed, the integration activates automatically. Customers will see their avatars on account pages right away.

How do I enable the privacy proxy feature?

Go to Settings > Discussion and check the "Enable Gravatar privacy proxy" option. This prevents user IP addresses from being shared with Gravatar.
