MB Simple User Avatar

I am enhancing my system more and more and don't want complicated plugins. I use now yours with clean Login which functions best on users Edit page. I tested several plugins but yours is the best as I wanted it on frontend :)

But I miss that this picture is also to see by commenting posts.

Simple is the best

A plugin allows for custom avatars. In the backend through the user-edit form, in the frontend through a shortcode.

<h4>Add an avatar upload field on frontend pages and Edit Profile screen so users can add a custom profile picture.</h4>
<p>Community and Membership sites on WordPress use this plugin as a lightweight solution for custom user avatars. The plugin is compatible with bbPress, as well as many popular plugins with frontend user registration and profile management features.</p>
<p>Admins can upload a user’s avatar on the Edit User admin screen.</p>
<p>Basic User Avatars also supports front-end avatar management for sites that want to keep users out of the dashboard. To use this feature, add the shortcode <code>[basic-user-avatars]</code> to any page in your WordPress site. We recommended placing this shortcode on another logged-in account type page, such as the WooCommerce My Account page, the Membership Account page, or any other front-end profile edit form.</p>
<p>The Avatar Upload form is automatically added to the bbPress User Profile > Edit frontend page.</p>
<p>If you do not want your users to be able to update their avatar, navigate to Settings > Discussion and locate the “Local Avatar Permissions” setting. Check this box to only allow users with file upload capabilities to upload local avatars (Author role and above).</p>
<h4>Seamlessly Migrate from WP User Avatar Plugin</h4>
<p>Version 1.0.5 includes a feature to automatically convert avatars formerly loaded through the WP User Avatar plugin. This means that you can disable WP User Avatar, activate Basic User Avatars, and have a seamless transition for existing avatars in your site. Be sure to update any avatar upload form that used the <code>[avatar_upload]</code> shortcode to use the shortcode: <code>[basic-user-avatars]</code>.</p>
