WordPress not connecting with Gravatar
-
I blog for a website and when I try to log into Gravatar to upload a pic it doesn’t recognize the login. I created a Gravatar account but it won’t connect with the website I post on. Any ideas on what to do?

Hi –
It sounds like you aren’t signing in to the correct account. Do you have the credentials for the site that you’re working for? Do not post them here.

Hi, Yes. I am trying to sign in using the exact same credentials that I use to sign into the website to post.

staff-zinnia,
The Gravatar profile page for the username walkerrragsdale account, https://en.gravatar.com/walkerrragsdale, contains a link to the self-hosted site https://www.lovebscott.com/, so I presume Jetpack is connecting the two.
If so, would the email address on the self-hosted site have to be the same as account email address of the WordPress.com site for Gravatar to work on the self-hosted site?

Hi there,
You’re right, @musicdoc1 – The email address you use to sign in to your self-hosted site must match the email address you use for your WordPress.com site in order for your Gravatar to show.
So, @walkerrragsdale, make sure that the Gravatar email matches your self-hosted login email and let me know if that works.

@darnelidibbles the current email is (email visible only to moderators and staff) the pending email account that is linked to this Gravatar account is (email visible only to moderators and staff)

Hi there,
Since you have a Gmail address, WordPress.com emails are known to end up in your social tab if you have that enabled. I would also check your spam folder to see if the email ended up there. Either way, if you search for your domain in the general inbox search field, you should be to find the email we sent to you regardless of the folder or tab that it is in.
Hope this helps.
Thanks,

That does not seem to be working either? Is there any other way to get the email changed?

Hi there,
I went ahead and activated the account for the current email, so it is now verified. You should now be able to update the email.
Let me know if you have any other questions.
Thanks,
