## Descripción

**It just works.**

ChargeWP Avatar Upload gives users a clean, intuitive way to update their profile
photo without opening the dashboard.
 It’s built for modern WordPress sites: secure,
lightweight, and theme-friendly.

### Key Features

 * **Instant front-end upload** — update your avatar right on the page or in WooCommerce“
   My Account.”
 * **SmartCrop.js built in** — automatically centers faces for perfect, professional
   results.
 * **Gutenberg Block and Shortcode** — add the avatar uploader anywhere you want.
 * **Gravatar friendly** — keeps existing Gravatars in place and simply takes priority
   when a custom image is uploaded.
 * **Automatic cleanup** — replaces old avatars so your media library stays tidy.
 * **Lightweight and native** — no complex settings, no setup screens, and no bloat.

### Why You’ll Love It

 * Works straight out of the box.
 * Looks and feels like part of WordPress and WooCommerce.
 * Secure uploads with smart cropping and optimized JPEG output.
 * Supports all image types WordPress allows (JPG, PNG, WebP, and more).
 * Translation ready and developer friendly.

### Usage

Shortcode example:

    ```
    [chargewp_avatar type="0" check_page_author="false"]
    ```

**Attributes:**
 – `type` — 0 = avatar only, 1 = avatar + name + ID, 2 = avatar 
+ name + ID + profile link. Default: 0 – `check_page_author` — true or false. When
true, shows the page or post author’s avatar instead of the current user. Default:
false – `classes` — Optional extra CSS classes for custom styling.

**Block:**
 – Insert the **ChargeWP Avatar** block in the editor. – Adjust display
type and author options from the block sidebar.

### Developer Notes

 * Template overrides are supported. Copy files from
    plugins/chargewp-avatar/templates/
   to `yourtheme/templates/cwpa/`.
 * Filters to disable automatic placement:
    - `add_filter('cwpa_auto_inject_wc_account', '__return_false');`
    - `add_filter('cwpa_auto_inject_cwpd_sidebar', '__return_false');`
 * Filters to change display type:
    - `cwpa_avatar_type_wc_account`
    - `cwpa_avatar_type_cwpd_sidebar`

## FAQ

### Does it replace Gravatar?

No. If a user doesn’t upload their own image, WordPress still uses Gravatar by default.

### What image types can be uploaded?

Any format WordPress supports, including JPG, PNG, GIF, and WebP. SmartCrop automatically
converts and optimizes the upload to JPEG for performance.

### Can I style it differently?

Yes. You can override templates in your theme or use the `classes` attribute for
custom styles.

### Is it secure?

Yes. Uploads use WordPress’s built-in media handling, nonces, and capability checks.
Old avatars are safely removed to save space.
