• User Avatar Version 1.4.11 would work flawlessly on one website and have broken images on a different website.

    After some investigating it turns out that on the working website the Query String to retrieve the image was a Root-Relative URL (no http://domain.tld in the src query string) and the site with the broken images had an Absolute URL (with the http://domain.tld in the src query string). It turns out that my firewall/security does not allow Absolute URL in the Query String and throws a 403 forbidden error.

    I have tried uninstalling/re-installing the plugin and removing the images and re-uploading them and it still using the Absolute URL in the Query String.

    Why is this happening and is there a way to fix it?

    BTW: I added an entry into my htaccess file to get around this issue for now, however I would rather have it fixed properly and/or have the developer update the plug-in to not use Absolute URL in the Query String.
