Overview

Avalicious! is a WordPress plugin that integrates LiveJournal, Dreamwidth, and Tumblr user avatars in WordPress comments. It is a functional re-write of Also LJ Avatar (itself a re-write of some even older plugins), with the following differences:

  • user avatars are downloaded via the cURL library, hopefully avoiding issues with hosts that disable remote URL includes
  • the regexps for extracting avatars have been improved
  • the user’s journal URL is extracted from a comment’s URL (not the name)
  • the user’s name is not re-written.

Version 1.3.3

  • Minor fixes. Should not have better compatibility with Dreamwidth icons.

Version 1.3.2

  • Should now work with both HTTP and HTTPS Tumblrs. Magic!

Version 1.3.1

  • Small regexp fixes.

Version 1.3

  • Added support for Tumblr icons.
  • Old icons are now cleaned…
