Disable comments without disabling Avatar

[finkk]

Hello there,

We would like to display an author’s user photo on an article but want to disable comments at the same time.

Is there a sensible way to do this in Pro?

Kind Regards,

Spencer

Hi @tristup,

Sorry for not explaining myself clearly

We would like to show the author’s profile picture to the bottom of this article: https://leslieh7.sg-host.com/blog/making-things-better/

At the moment I have a Gravatar element in place, but is there better way if displaying a profile image? A custom field, perhaps? I don’t think my client’s writers will all have a Gravatar account, or want to create one.

Kind Regards,

Spencer

Hello Spencer,

Thanks for writing to us.

Regretfully there is no option for that at the moment but you may achieve it through user meta. You need to follow these steps.

1. Add an Image field in the user’s meta through the ACF bundled plugin. Please have a look at the given screenshot below.
   

   

2. Go to the user profile and upload an image

3. Add an image element and pull the profile image through the dynamic content code.
   Example code {{dc:user:meta key="profile_image"}}It is bassed on my ACF filed key.
   

Hope it helps
Thanks
