The plugin does what it’s supposed to do – makes threaded comments more visually appealing by adding letter avatars.

Convenient plugin that solves your problems

The plugin works great. You just need to keep track of the number of avatars created. When you delete a user, the avatars remain. Those who have many registrations need to know this. Perhaps the author will solve this issue in the future.
