Author box : Display Avatar for users without user email

[marcsaffar]

Hello,
I build a website using latest genesis-sample.
There will be some posts from authors I won't know their email address.

So I used this snippet to create accounts without email :

// This will suppress empty email errors when submitting the user form
add_action('user_profile_update_errors', 'my_user_profile_update_errors', 10, 3 );
function my_user_profile_update_errors($errors, $update, $user) {
$errors->remove('empty_email');
}

// This will remove javascript required validation for email input
// It will also remove the '(required)' text in the label
// Works for new user, user profile and edit user forms
add_action('user_new_form', 'my_user_new_form', 10, 1);
add_action('show_user_profile', 'my_user_new_form', 10, 1);
add_action('edit_user_profile', 'my_user_new_form', 10, 1);
function my_user_new_form($form_type) {
?>
<script type="text/javascript">
jQuery('#email').closest('tr').removeClass('form-required').find('.description').remove();
// Uncheck send new user email option by default
<?php if (isset($form_type) && $form_type === 'add-new-user') : ?>
jQuery('#send_user_notification').removeAttr('checked');
<?php endif; ?>
</script>
<?php
}

Then I used this plugin to set an avatar from image in the wp media library :
Simple Local Avatars

Then I choosed the checkbox to get the author box displayed in the author/user archive page.

It works well for an author with an email, I get profile and author box image from local media library but for a user without email I get the local image for the profile but default mystery grey gravatar image still shows instead of local image.

Any idea to help ?
Best

Why not use the contributor role so email addresses are mandatory before submitting posts and then use Simple Local Avatars

Hello Brad,
Thank you for your answer.

The problem is I will receive some texts from authors I won't know their emails and it will be long and difficult to get these email adresses.

Finally I found this in Genesis > structure > post.php
$gravatar = get_avatar( get_the_author_meta( 'email', $user_id ), $gravatar_size );

When I change 'email' by 'ID' it works how I want for every users even without email.

I'd preferred that function would be filterable. Now I have to pay attention in case of future Genesis upgrade.

And, you can also filter get_avatar and use the pre_get_avatar filter.

And, you can also use add_filter( 'avatar_defaults' to add a default image.

Me neither, they should fix it 😉 anyway thanks for your answers.

I tried but unsuccessfully. Maybe I did note do correctly do the add_filter…
.

And, you can also use add_filter( 'avatar_defaults' to add a default image.

Thanks but I don't want a default image 😉

To find the best printer for cardstock, we researched 30 machines from our list of the best printers to identify the ones that were the ablest to handle thicker media and a wide range of paper finishes. Printers needed to be able to handle a minimum of 60 lb weighted paper and have good enough ink quality to absorb quickly into cardstock finishes without smudging. Below is a list of the best printers after our research.
