Feature RE-requests

Hi guys,

First of as you know I love your product.
But I have a few small requests.

1] WP Comments – Please add Display Name
—
$user->display_name should really be offered as an option for the name to display.
Privacy wise (as the user can select what this will represent, so they have a choice in Username, First + Lastname combinations or Nickname etc) it is the best option for comments IMHO as it gives more freedom to the enduser. (Which is my use case is more important)

2] WP Comments – Give a better option for Avatars
—
Now I always have to change it to make NotificationX use the actual user avatar in the plugin itself.

I have to change this;
$avatar = get_avatar_url( $data[’email’], array(
‘size’ => ‘100’,
));

To this;
$avatar = get_avatar($data[’email’], 100, ”, $data[‘name’], array(‘extra_attr’ => ‘title=”‘.$data[‘name’].'”‘));

Main difference in thee above is;
get_avatar_url will get a Gravatar url, which still needs html markup, which is external.
get_avatar will get a full img tag, is local, and has less overhead)

3] Custom sound
—
I love the sound option and I have been overwriting the default sound for quite some time. But I dont like the facts that I have to redo this with each release of the Pro version.

Possible suggestion
—
If you can not change these things I would really appreciate a filter/hook for them so I don’t have to keep messing with the plugin files itself. Because that is just cumbersome and should be more user / developer approachable.

Hope you will look into this.

Best regards and best of luck as always,
