Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Not through the WordPress Dashboard. You would have to replace /wp-content/plugins/redirect-gravatar-requests/mystery.jpg. You would also have to repeat this after each plugin update. The reason for this choice is simple: if you enable the display of avatars, but use this plugin to block Gravatars, then you most likely are already using another plugin for custom avatars.
There is nothing to be configured about this plugin. As soon as it’s activated, it will redirect all attempts to load a Gravatar from gravatar.com to the locally stored ‘mystery person’ image included with this plugin. You can verify that the plugin is working on a page displaying (Gr)avatars in Chrome by opening the developer console (default hotkey F12), selecting the ‘Network’ tab at the top, typing ‘gravatar’ in the console’s search box and then reloading the page (by pressing CTRL+R). With the plugin deactivated, you will see requests going out to gravatar.com. With the plugin activated, you will see those requests going to this plugin’s locally stored image instead.
It should be, since this plugin specifically targets only Gravatars. If you do run into problems, please let me know.
