How to Change Gravatar Size?

  • Hi,

    In my previous theme I had the following code in my comments.php file:

    <?php echo get_avatar( $comment, 55 ); ?>

    So all I had to do to change the gravatar size was change the number (which in this case is 55) around.

    But my new theme doesn’t have any php call to get the gravatar. So I’m guessing my gravatars now come from the core WordPress files. So how can I change the size of my gravatars, as of now they are very small.

    Also in my new theme, the comments use the following header:

    Username says:

    followed by the comment…

    In my comments.php file the word “says:” does not exist, where is the comment template getting “says:” from?

    Thanks for helping this novice out!

  • If the code doesn’t work you might have to change it in your style sheet. Do you have the gravatar plug-in? That also might be a problem if you don’t & your theme isn’t based off the default theme WordPress provides.

    Username says: is also part of the default code provided by WordPress. You’d have to find a new code/change the code to something else. For example, my comment template looks like:

    Username
    Date, Time

    Comment follows

    The code that calls for the author is this

    <?php } else { comment_author(); } ?>

    That will just say Username. It also has to do with the fact that you probably have this code:

    <ol class="commentlist">
	<?php wp_list_comments(); ?>
	</ol>

    That’s WordPress’s script that lists your comments in such a way. To edit this style, you’d have to look it up.
