My gravatar appears on someone else's comment on my site.
-
For some reason, when I replied to a commenter on my site, the results were that my gravatar appeared also in place of the commenter’s gravatar. I did edit the comment for punctuation only. We are having pre-tornadic weather and I live rather far from really great Internet service, if that matters.
The location is: https://katharinetrauger.wordpress.com/2015/04/02/do-you-live-where-tornadoes-happen-often/#comment-6873Sela theme.
The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

I’m seeing the issue too:
I went to the comment’s edit screen to see its history and then the comment switched to my avatar:
The user who originally commented does have a gravatar setup and appears normal, so I’m not sure what’s going on that Sela’s comments are pulling Gravatars from you and I instead. Let me get a few more folks to take a look at this and I’ll report back with more information. :)

Hi again!
Could you also confirm something for me? Did you ever visit the Edit Comment screen before the comment changed to your gravatar? Or did you only reply?
-
I edited the comment, first, then replied. I only added a period after the sentence and a space, so the smiley would convert.
-
Oh, also (embarrassing) I replied in the comment box, instead of remembering to click “reply”. Copy-pasted my comment into a reply box and deleted my misplaced reply which appeared as a comment. I am not sure when, in all that, that the gravatar mess-up happened, since I might not have noticed it when it first appeared.

Hmm. Here’s more: I notice your name and gravatar in the comment tracking drop down, top right, but in the actual comment section it shows your gravatar, with still the original commenter’s link, whick is still live.
