Evolution Theme - Gravatar not work - Help...

[Mr. Mask]

Okay…

First, Introduction – I am Mr. Mask. I am the owner of www.Ultimate-Gaming-Laptop.com (http://www.Ultimate-Gaming-Laptop.com/)

I use evolution theme at my blog – www.Ultimate-Gaming-Laptop.com
(http://www.Ultimate-Gaming-Laptop.com/)
I have a problem with this theme ... The Gravatar does not work ...

My request:

Anyone can remake comments.php that gravatar is work and I can set gravatar easily in wordpress discuss setting?

So the whole image gravatar is taken from en.gravatar.com.

So I can also set the show gravatar and do not show gravatar. Also I want to use monster ID gravatar if my commentator did not have gravatar at en.gravatar.com from discuss setting.

If you want help me – please give me the new comments.php

So I just download and replace my comments.php at my blog hosting with new one that gravatar is work…

- Thank you if you want to help me…

From looking at your blog, gravatars are working correctly. You need to make sure you have signed up to Gravatar.

If a user uses an email address which is registered via Gravatar, then their gravatar will be shown. Otherwise, the default avatar will be displayed.

Kevin - Thanks Kevin for your reply...

I already signed up Gravatar with my photo...

But it still didn't show in comments gravatar - its keep showing default gravatar...

In my wordpress admin comments section, I can see my gravatar photo and monster gravatar in there...

But in my comments articles, it keep showing default gravatar...

So do you think that I am doing a mistake?

I don't think so kevin...

Besides I have try to set "don't show gravatar" in wordpress discussion setting - but it still keep showing default gravatar...

Can you fix it with new comments.php ?

[Kevin]

I definitely think you have set something up incorrectly as the avatars are showing correctly in the demo area (http://www.bloggingtips.com/demo/?p=6#comments).

If the gravatars are showing in your admin area then this would suggest to me that you have either changed a setting somewhere or edited the comments.php file. In which case, I would suggest downloading the file again and reuploading the comments template.

Let me know if that helps.

[Mr. Mask]

Back again...

Kevin - I remember that I didn't change comments.php

I only change header.php, index.php, default-blue.css, footer.php, sidebar.php and single.php

I replace comments.php with new one that I download through your blog...

The result is same... Only default gravatar is showing...

-------------------------------------------------------------------------

Okay...

I think that maybe I do some mistakes at editing evolution theme...

So I try to do some test...

I try using XAMPP with no edit evolution theme... And put my gravatar e-mail...

The result is same - my gravatar is showing at admin comments section but it appear as default gravatar at comments articles - that is meaning I didn't do a mistake at editing any php files...

I test it with newest Wordpress version 2.8.4...

And I also test it with wordpress 2.7.1 version...

But the result is same - gravatar doesn't work...

---------------------------------------------------------------------

Kevin, I look at your evolution theme page that is say "This theme has been designed for use with Wordpress 2.5+"

What I think?

I think is evolution theme has comments.php that didn't fit with above wordpress 2.7 version...

If 2.7.1 version didn't show that is mean above version is not show too...

I has saw evolution theme demo - could you tell me, what is the wordpress version you use for that?

So how to fix this?

Your gravatars are working fine as you can see on this comment - http://www.ultimate-gaming-laptop.com/2009/08/18/k-lite-mega-codec-pack-great-freeware/comment-page-1/#comment-7

Your gravatar account is what's causing the issue. Most likely the email address that you've signed up to is not the one you're using when you make comments. if you make comments when logged into WP then you need to ensure your email in your profile (different to that of the admin email under Settings) is the same email as the one signed up to gravatar.

And the comment code for Evolution will work on the newer versions of WP and the gravatar code is standard anyway so that wouldn't be an issue regardless.

Oh and you can delete my test comment too :)

[Mr. Mask]

Okay - Big thanks all to you... I apologize to you - kevin and sarahG that making you busy...

It is my fault...

I already found the solution at gravatar.com is FAQ... (http://en.gravatar.com/site/faq/)

I didn't use lowercase e-mail... So I just change my e-mail with lowercase and all gravatar are show...

Thanks...

[Kevin]

No problem. Glad you got it resolved.

(thanks for finding the solution Sarah)
