Thanks to Elliott Back for this temporary solution while the Gravatar site has domain problems (it expired).
In NP_Gravatar.php, find
$this->createOption(‘gravatarURL’,’Gravatar server’,’select’,’wide.gravatar.com’,’Default|wide.gravatar.com|Alternative
|www.gravatar.com’);
and change to
$this->createOption(‘gravatarURL’,’Gravatar server’,’select’,’wide.gravatar.com’,’Default|wide.gravatar.com|Alternative
|www.gravatar.com|DNS|64.124.231.223′);
then reinstall the plugin and select ‘DNS’ as your option.
Cheers – fixeded.
I had to upgrade from 0.2 to 0.5 first though.
Okay. I have no idea how to eidt the .php document!
Oh I see, editing it now!
Welp, mine are still down
OH MY GOD! I did it. I actually did something and it worked!!!
I forgot to click save before when I edited it and that’s why I couldnt select DNS but I did it
Thanks Dom
LOL, it’s nice to see your mind moving through all the stages – Confusion, Inspiration, Despair, Celebration!
lol
I wasn’t gonna give up. You’d said how to do it clearly so there was no reason why I couldn’t! Thanks again
Right, they’re back at the normal address now anyway
But I’m keeping DNS as an option just in case it happens again!
Me too! Mainly ‘cos I don’t wanna try my luck at changing that file again
Typical, they work fine now! so does gravatar.com
