Limited Support
Our team is currently on holiday, so support will be limited during this period. Response times may be slower than usual, and some inquiries may be delayed.
We appreciate your patience and understanding, and we’ll resume our usual support by the end of August.
It works fine here and on all our tested websites. I recommend to change the theme and test it again.
Also leave some screenshot of the Dashboard > Settings > Discussions admin page, the part of avatars (scroll down). What type of avatars you've enabled in this settings?
Now I made another 1 site with a standard theme. In discussions, avatars change outwardly, but in practice they remain standard. Previously, the problem was with the fact that the avatars did not change on the forum. Apparently, she moved from the forum to Wordpress.
Look. Could it be that the avatars replace only the picture in the discussions?
