# Author image bug

 * Only display default avatar even if the specific author has its own avatar. Tried
   with echo through PHP and shortcode both echo out the image of default and not
   the specific for the author.
 * Maybe I’m missing something? How do I fetch the avatar image alt text from the
   media? Does not seem to be done as fetching a featured image etc?
 * Is there a way to disable thumbnail for avatars? It is printed as a thumbnail
   both in URL and in structured data. Prefer full URL as I handle the resizing 
   myself.
