Display a Custom Image as Author Avatar
Allow registered users to choose between using Gravatar or upload and select their own avatars right from their profile screen.
Registered User Support
Registered users get to choose between letting WordPress loading the Gravatar associated to their email account or uploading a custom image as their profile avatar.
Guest Author Support
Just like registered users can do for their profile image, you can upload a custom local avatar for your guest authors.
Letter Avatar
Display letter avatar based on author name’s initials. An alternative to Gravatar and local avatar.
Fallback Avatar Source
Tired of that boring default user image for those users without avatar? Molongui Authorship allows you to choose what to display when no avatar is found. It really makes a big different in the ascetics of your site!
Author Avatar Shortcode
The [molongui_author_avatar] shortcode allows you to display the avatar for the current post author or for any author you indicate. Really handy shortcode when building a custom page.
For multi-authored posts, use the [post_avatars] shortcode instead.
Post Avatars Shortcode
The [post_avatars] shortcode is meant for multi-authored posts —a post with multiple contributors— but it works on single-authored posts as well. It allows you to display the avatars for all the post authors.
This might be specially useful when you want to display the avatars in your post byline.
