Awesome Avatars is the most awesome avatars plugin for WordPress! It allows users to upload their own avatars or use avatars from their social networks (using avatars.io).
Drop this directory in your wp-content
folder and activate the plugin.
Want to test out Awesome Avatars and work on it? Here's how you can set up your own testing environment in a few easy steps:
-
Install Vagrant and VirtualBox.
-
Clone Chassis:
git clone --recursive git@github.com:Chassis/Chassis.git awesome-avatars-tester
If you're getting a
permission denied
error, it probably means you need to set up your GitHub SSH Key. -
Grab a copy of Awesome Avatars:
cd awesome-avatars-tester mkdir -p content/plugins content/themes cp -r wp/wp-content/themes/* content/themes git clone git@github.com:josiahgoff/awesome-avatars.git awesome-avatars
-
Start the virtual machine:
vagrant up
-
Create a symlink and activate the plugin:
vagrant ssh -c 'cd /vagrant && ln -s /vagrant/awesome-avatars/trunk /vagrant/content/plugins/awesome-avatars && wp plugin activate awesome-avatars'
-
Sign up at Avatars.io for free to get your API credentials and input them through the dashboard settings panel.
You're done! You should now have a WordPress site available at http://vagrant.local.
