Readme github.com/melchinger/wpfcavatarsync ↗

Synchronises avatars maintained in FluentCommunity with WordPress user profiles. The plugin stores the FluentCommunity avatar as a media attachment, updates it whenever a profile is saved, and prioritises the synced avatar over Gravatar across the site.

Features

  • Downloads FluentCommunity avatars during user registration and profile updates (both back-end and front-end).
  • Skips unnecessary downloads when the avatar URL has not changed.
  • Automatically replaces the default WordPress avatar URL (including Gravatar) with the synced attachment.
  • Cleans up previously synced avatars when a new one is stored (filterable).
  • Exposes filters and actions to customise field detection, cleanup behaviour, and to hook into success or failure events.

Installation

  1. Copy the plugin folder into your WordPress installation's wp-content/plugins directory.
  2. Activate FluentCommunity Avatar Sync from the WordPress Plugins screen.

Customisation

Use the provided filters and actions to adapt the plugin to your FluentCommunity setup:

  • fc_avatar_sync_post_fields – Adjust the list of $_POST field names that may contain the avatar URL.
  • fc_avatar_sync_meta_fields – Adjust the user meta keys checked for an avatar URL.
  • fc_avatar_sync_delete_previous_attachment – Return false to keep the previously synced attachment.
  • fc_avatar_sync_updated – Fires after a new avatar attachment has been saved.
  • fc_avatar_sync_failed – Fires when the avatar could not be downloaded.

  • WordPress 5.8 or later.
  • PHP 7.4 or later.
