Sticky Users are unable to change or upload avatar images (Gravatar plugin is enabled)

Hi Folks,
Finally got Kuenea installed (2.5 no category option for 2.5 so perhaps I am in the wrong place))and I am looking to allow association of an avatar with a registered user. I have upload set to yes and allow visibility to yes. I would assume that somewhere in the profile edit mode a user would be allowed to upload an image. Clearly my assumption is wrong and I am missing something somewhere. Could someone point me in the right direction?
Thanks
Rick

The categories in this forum are based around versions of Kunena - as opposed to versions of Joomla - and, because K 3.0 operates on J 2.5 as well as J! 3.1, you have posted your question in the right place (except that I have merged your question here because it is similar to other questions we have received on this subject).

The answer is actually contained in the subject that you chose for your topic. If you choose to use Gravatar avatar images then you impose, on your users, the restriction that the only way they can change their avatar image on your forum is to go to the Gravatar site and update their avatar image there. If you want your users to use images that are not Gravatar images, disable the Kunena - Gravatar plugin.

It's a one-thing-or-another choice; you can't have both.

Thanks Sozzled... I too had enabled the gravatar plugin. :blush:

yep, you nailed it. The subject was an expression of my confusion. I didn't know the difference between Avatar & Gravatar and the search terms I used to find an answer were obviously wrong as well. In any event your explanation was clear and helpful.
Thanks!

Kunena Dear moderators, I have problems: kunena profile and also in avatar.
I uploaded community builder and if there avatar but registration activation fails.
So I've decided to eliminate community builder and leave again if kunena avatar.

I hit the problems I listed in report configuration if I could support this problem ..
I have dizzy for two weeks.
