    Hello,

    Thanks for a great plugin. I have formatted my wpp_get_mostpopular() function with my own HTML/CSS structure so that it matches my normal post loop. However, in my normal loop I am displaying the author avatar as well. When I try to implement the get_avatar() function inside the post_html block it displays the avatar for the current logged in user, and not the author of the post. How do I display the author avatar for each post in the function?

    This is my code;

    <?php
    wpp_get_mostpopular(
        array(
            'post_html' => '<div class="avatar">' . get_avatar( get_the_author( 'ID' ) , 64 ) . '</div>'
        )
    );
?>

    I finally figured it out. This plugin doesn’t use the usual loop so I had to go around it using wpp_custom_html filter.

    <?php
    function my_custom_popular_posts_html_list( $mostpopular , $instance ) {
        global $post;
        foreach ( $mostpopular as $popular ) {
            $p = get_post( $popular->id );
            $author = $p->post_author;
            echo get_avatar ( get_the_author_meta( 'ID' , $author ) );
        }
    }
    add_filter( 'wpp_custom_html' , 'my_custom_popular_posts_html_list' , 10 , 2 );
?>
