How to Change the Shape of User Avatars in WordPress

[Mostafa044]

Have you ever come across a website that has custom shapes for their user avatars or gravatars ? Would you like to use the same style on your website too? In the past, we wrote about how to add round avatars using CSS, but that requires adjusting the code. In this article, we'll show you how to change the shape of user avatars in WordPress without HTML or CSS.


The plugin has 10 built-in shapes that you can use for your Gravatar images. You can see a live preview of each shape by clicking the “Select Shape” button.

Avatar Shaper includes the following shapes: curved square, circle, pentagon, hexagon, nonagon, heptagon, diamond, burst and heart-shaped avatars.

You can customize the styles by changing the radius list of cambodia cell phone number settings, adding or removing shadows, changing the shadow color, and removing the shine from any of these predefined shapes.

If you don't want to use any of the predefined shapes, you can always click Custom and create your own shape. When you create a custom shape, you can adjust the radius of the frame to your liking.

If you are an advanced user and want to add modified avatars manually, you can check the Custom method checkbox. Using the custom method allows you to manually avatar_shaper()add template tag in your theme where you want to display custom avatars. Beginners can safely ignore this setting.

Once you have selected the shape for your avatars, you can click the Save Changes button to save your settings.
