 * Hi !
    When i check “Show Avatars” that check automatically, in “Settings” “Discussion”,
   the box “show avatars”. But if this case is check, gravatar is working ([https://www.wpbeginner.com/beginners-guide/how-to-disable-gravatars-in-wordpress/](https://www.wpbeginner.com/beginners-guide/how-to-disable-gravatars-in-wordpress/))
   And i don’t want gravatar works because it cause a lot of issue in my website(
   lot of out connection). That’s why i download your plugin but finally, it is 
   useless… Because you say ” WordPress currently only allows you to use custom 
   avatars that are uploaded through Gravatar. WP User Avatar enables you to use
   any photo uploaded into your Media Library as an avatar” so that”s mean i can
   use a photo without using gravatar but in reality it is not the case…

 * Hello,
    We are sorry for your all inconvenience you had from our plugin. You 
   can disable gravatar easily using this plugin and only local avatar will be displayed
   which is set by you via backend. If user email id is assigned with a gravatar
   then gravatar will load but if you have disabled gravatar then only local avatar/
   user-defined custom avatar will be load. Your user can upload any custom avatar
   according to the need.
 * Thanks

 * Sorry but it doesn’t work.
    In “settings”, i have to click on ” Show Avatars”
   to see my picture in the section “about the author”. But, if i do it, in “Settings”
   then “Discussion”, the box “show avatars” is checked ! And that”s mean Gravatar
   is used. Do you understand ?
