Thanks. Advanced Customization For Front End Display By default, the plugin hooks into the following filters: the_content() and the_excerpt(). OVERRIDE HTML DISPLAY USING FILTER HOOK: gklpa_the_postavatar The gklpa_the_postavatar filter takes two parameters: $post_avatar_text – Original HTML display $post_avatar – Post Avatar data in array format. The keys are: avatar_url: The URL to the image show_image_dim: 1 indicates to show image dimensions, 0 to hide them image_height: integer value of image height or null if image dimensions is turned off image_width: integer value of image width or null if image dimensions is turned off post_id: ID of current post post_title: Post title for the image attribute image_name: Image file name Example: Display a default image if no avatar is selected This example makes use of the HTML/CSS settings defined by the site admin. add_filter( 'gklpa_the_postavatar', 'prefix_show_default_image', 10, 2 ); function prefix_show_default_image( $post_avatar_html, $post_avatar_array ){ global $post, $gklpa_plugin_settings; // Display default image; if( is_null( $post_avatar_array ) ){ if( !empty( $gklpa_plugin_settings['css_class'] ) { $css = 'class="' . $gkl_plugin_settings['css_class']. '"'; } $post_avatar_html = $gklpa_plugin_settings['html_before' ] . ' post_title) ) . '" />'. $gklpa_plugin_settings['html_after']; } return $post_avatar_html; } OVERRIDE HTML DISPLAY WITH CUSTOM CONTENT HOOK If you want to change the HTML completely or override the option to display avatars automatically, use the remove_filter() like so: remove_filter(‘the_content’, ‘gkl_postavatar_filter’, 99 ); remove_filter(‘the_excerpt’, ‘gkl_postavatar_filter’, 99 ); You can then define your own the_content filter function that makes use of the gkl_postavatar() or gkl_get_postavatar() functions You will need to use the function gkl_get_postavatar() which takes the post object and returns the array of post avatar information. $post_avatar_array – Post Avatar data in array format. The keys are: avatar_url: The URL to the image show_image_dim: 1 indicates to show image dimensions, 0 to hide them image_height: integer value of image height or null if image dimensions is turned off image_width: integer value of image width or null if image dimensions is turned off post_id: ID of current post post_title: Post title for the image attribute image_name: Image file name Example: add_filter( 'the_content', 'my_custom_post_avatar' ); function my_custom_post_avatar( $content ){ global $post; $current_avatar = gkl_get_postavatar( $post ); $html_before = ' '; $html_after = ' '; // Display default image if( is_null( $current_avatar ) ) { $image_url = 'http://wplatest.dev/images/default-image.jpg'; $alt_text = esc_attr(strip_tags($post->post_title) ); } else { $image_url = $current_avatar['avatar_url']; $alt_text = $current_avatar['post_title']; } $post_avatar_html = $html_before . ' '. $html_after; return $post_avatar_html; } OVERRIDE HTML DISPLAY WITH template tag gkl_postavatar If you want the post avatar to appear outside of the content, e.g. with the entry’s meta information, make use of the gkl_postavatar() template tag. It takes four paramters: class: CSS class to use in the ` ` tag. before: HTML to appear before the image. after: HTML to appear after the image. do_what: Use `echo` to display the post avatar, `return` to pass it to a variable. Defaults to `echo`. Example: In a template file: ", " " );?> -- more template tags here -- Or you can make your own template tag function like in the example for “Override HTML display with custom content hook”, except you call the function directly in your template instead of hooking into the_content(). For Administration Screens Add Post Avatar to Pages and Custom Post Types Use the filter hook gklpa_allowed_post_types to add further post types that you want the Post Avatar selection to appear on. It takes an array of post type slugs as a parameter. add_filter( 'gklpa_allowed_post_types', 'prefix_my_custom_post_types' ); function prefix_my_custom_post_types( $current_post_types ){ $current_post_types = array( 'post', 'page', 'review', 'event' ); return $current_post_types; } Enable Image Selection for Folder Outside of WordPress Installation By default, Post Avatar looks for your images folder in relation to your WordPress installation. If you want to move your folder elsewhere, use these pair of filter hooks: gklpa_image_url and gklpa_image_dir. They take a single parameter: Image folder url and absolute path to the image folder, respectively. add_filter( 'gklpa_image_url', 'prefix_change_folder_url' ); function prefix_change_folder_url( $current_url ){ return esc_url( 'http://mysite.com/images/' ); } add_filter( 'gklpa_image_dir', 'prefix_change_folder_dir' ); function prefix_change_folder_dir ){ return '/user/public_html/images/'; } Please visit the Post Avatar Page for details on customizing the avatar display.

This plugin allows you to quickly and easily add a Sentifyd AI-powered 3D avatar to your WordPress website. Simply install the plugin, enter your avatar API key and Avatar ID on the settings page, choose the Voice mode you want, and the Sentifyd avatar web component will be installed on your site. The admin page allows you to configure your avatar API Key, Avatar ID, Voice mode, branding, and other important attributes for the avatar. You can also restrict the avatar to logged-in users only. However, you need to sign up to sentifyd.io to create your avatar and train it. If you choose Real-time voice mode, the avatar you created in sentifyd.io must also be configured for realtime voice mode. Sentifyd.io empowers you to deploy intelligent, real-time 3D AI agents—fully animated avatars capable of natural, voice-driven conversations. These interactive 3D agents go beyond traditional chatbots by combining Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG), dynamic motion, and customizable tool integration. With Sentifyd, your 3D AI agents can: Understand and respond to user input in real time using natural voice and language. Express themselves through lifelike gestures, movement, and tone for an immersive user experience. Access and reason over your own content—such as manuals, FAQs, or internal documents—while maintaining strict privacy and security protocols. Connect with powerful tools like MCP servers and more, enabling task execution and contextual awareness. These agents can be easily embedded into your website or application, offering users a compelling, intelligent interface that feels truly alive.
