Hi, I like you comments widget. Here it is possible to display avatars. But if I have a comment from Facebook the Facebook Avatars are not shown. $output .= '<ul id="ns">'; if ( $comments ) { foreach ( (array) $comments as $comment) { $output .= '<div class="avat">'; $output .= get_avatar(get_comment_author_email($comment->comment_ID), $size) . ' '; $output .= sprintf(__('%1$s on </div><li class="ns-comment"> %2$s', 'widget-recent-comments'), get_comment_author(), 'comment_ID) ) . '">' . get_the_title($comment->comment_post_ID) . ''); $output .= '<br style="clear:both;height:0;margin:0;padding:0;" />'; } } Is it possible to do that with an if else commando like this example? if ($comment->user_id) {echo get_avatar($td_comment_auth_email, 50);} else {echo get_avatar( $comment, 50 );} So if an User is registered on the Site he has it´s avatar, and the Users from outside the Site have their avatar for Example Facebook shown?
