Rathly Marketing

<p>Rathly Profile Avatars replaces the default Gravatar with your own uploaded images, giving every user a custom profile picture chosen straight from the WordPress Media Library. No external services, no accounts to create, and no code required. Each user sets their avatar on their own profile screen, and it appears everywhere your theme shows an avatar.</p>
<p>Gravatar ties a user’s photo to their email address on a third-party service, which is not always what you want. Maybe your authors do not have Gravatar accounts, maybe you want consistent on-brand headshots for a team or about-us page, or maybe you would simply rather keep avatar images on your own site. Rathly Profile Avatars lets you do exactly that while still working with any theme that relies on the standard WordPress avatar functions.</p>
<p>Because it hooks the core get_avatar and get_avatar_url filters, your custom images show up in comments, author boxes, the admin bar, the users list, and anywhere else WordPress renders an avatar. If a user has not set a custom image, the normal Gravatar is used, so nothing breaks.</p>
