Yes, if a user uploads a custom profile picture, it will override their Gravatar. If no image is set, Gravatar or the default avatar will be used. ### Can I restrict image sizes or formats? The plugin currently allows standard WordPress Media Library uploads (JPG, PNG, etc.) and respects your site’s upload limits. ### Does it work for multisite? Yes, it should work on multisite setups. Each site manages its own avatars. ### Does this work for all users? Yes, but the user must be logged in to see or edit their avatar. ### What happens if no custom avatar is uploaded? WordPress will display the default avatar (from Settings > Discussion). ### Can I use this with Elementor or Gutenberg? Yes! Just paste the shortcode into a shortcode block (Gutenberg) or a shortcode widget (Elementor). ## Reviews There are no reviews for this plugin. ## Contributors & Developers “Easy Avatar Upload” is open source software.
