Gravatar Signup
This plugin inserts a checkbox into the comment form for users who don’t have a Gravatar (based on the e-mail they typed in). If they check the box and submit their comment, it will initiate the first step of signing up for Gravatar, on their behalf. They’ll receive an e-mail directly from Gravatar and will have to follow the instructions there to complete the process.

Since Automattic acquired this thing, the plugin doesn’t seem to work anymore. I looked at the code a bit, and the URIs the plugin refers to actually no longer exist. Any chance of an update to this plugin? Pretty excited to actually get this working! Thanks in advance.

This looks ace, but it doesnt seem to send an email? A few people have tried on my site with no luck. Any ideas?
Really hoping for an update to this plugin so it will work.

I’m curious as to why you don’t appear to use your own plugin?
Sadly it seems that this plugin doesn’t work. I’ve tried a few times with different emails but I don’t get the mail from gravatar.com and it seems that gravatar.com doesn’t know who I am when i try to login with mail and passwords set using this plugin. Shame, but a great idea.
I this plugin going to be updated to work with gravatar.com?
WOO
[...] Gravatar Signup WordPress Plugin Gravatar Signup is a WordPress plugin that puts a checkbox in your comments form that says “Sign me up for a free Gravatar!” [...]
Here’s the fixes needed… hopefully the blog won’t screw anything up. Maybe the author will update the package with this cheat sheet
lines 63-64-65, change to this (removing the password field, not needed):
<p>Provide a valid e-mail address and submit your comment.
You will get an e-mail allowing you to access your free Gravatar
account and upload an image that will appear next to your comments!<br /><br /></p>
line 90: gravatar_signup($user_email, $_POST['gravatar_password']);
change to: gravatar_signup($user_email);
line 92: gravatar_signup($_POST['email'], $_POST['gravatar_password']);
change to: gravatar_signup($_POST['email']);
remove line 110: $email = md5($email);
lines 129-133 remove:
//new method
$rest_uri = ‘http://gravatar.com/info/md5/’ . $email;
$the_file = @file_get_contents($rest_uri);
if ( strpos($the_file, ‘<code>200</code>’) !== FALSE ) {
Replace with:
//send test to gravatar with blank image.
$blank_img = site_url(‘wp-includes/images/blank.gif’);
$rest_uri = ‘http://www.gravatar.com/avatar/’ . md5(strtolower($email)) . ‘?d=’ . urlencode( $blank_img );
//collect gravatar image and blank image

$comp_file = @file_get_contents($blank_img);
//compare test blank with image returned from gravatar.

Too bad it doesn’t sign you up. A good idea since the idea of using a universal avatar itself isn’t that well known, really. I’m surprised Auttomatic hasn’t come up with a Wordpress tool to incorporate gravatar sign-up in the user sign-up area, really. A huge oversight.
Surfalot,
This may be almost there but I keep getting an error message on activation:
Parse error: syntax error, unexpected ‘:’ in /var/www/vhosts/newteachers.info/httpdocs/wp-content/plugins/gravatar-signup/gravatar-signup.php on line 131
The string I have on line 131 is:
$rest_uri = ‘http://en.gravatar.com/avatar/’ . md5(strtolower($email)) . ‘?d=’ . urlencode( $blank_img );
Tried messing with different variables but am mystified. Am trying to implement it in the latest version of 2.6.
Too bad, though. it’s a good idea for a plugin. The problem with gravatars is that they’re basically used by people who already know they exist. Until there is some way to promote them in user registration and comment sections on different sites, they’re going to basically be a toy used by blog geeks and not absorbed by the general public.
Folks
Has anyone managed to get this working? Great idea…
Thx
How annoying.
Gravatars desperately need this plugin.

I tried installing it with WP 2.7. It doesn’t seem to work. Is there any chance there will be an update bringing it into compatibility with WP 2.7.

This is especially important where the plug-ins advance a “platform” technology, such as Gravatar, Del.icio.us, etc.
Cool, will install this later today!
Cool. Glad my new javascript approach to gravatar detection is taking off.
Two minor things of note:
1. To remain consistent with the way WordPress names scripts, and my own Gravatar Box plugin, the script name you’re enqueuing for the jQuery md5 plugin should be “jquery-md5″, not “jquery.md5″. Using different naming styles leads to plugins which conflict with one another.
2. Since you’re not actually displaying the detected avatar on the form, you don’t actually need the “s=size” parameter in your javascript code.
This plugin is a good idea.
I only wish that the one line with the checkbox could be editable, and say something more about what gravatars are and why you should want it.
It currently reads like we’re trying to sell gravatars, rather than offering a helpful feature to bloggers/commenters.
Can you arrange for something like editable HTML (for example)? or a selection of messages? Maybe a link to wikipedia about what gravatars are…
thanks, really like this plugin.
I upgraded the plugin today, and the checkbox is now missing. Any ideas?
I get this error when I manually add the code to my comments.php file:
