When a person is logged in and goes to an article, his avatar is shown as avatar of people who have commented under article. See attachement.

It happens to the standard easyblog commentsystem with integration of Jomsocial.
Hey Peter,

I am really sorry for the delay of this reply as it is actually a public day off for us here. I can't login to the back end with the provided login credentials on your site. I suspect that you are using an older version of EasyBlog as we have already fixed this in one of the later versions. Can you update EasyBlog to the latest version?

Yes, I new comments it is fixed, but if you go to an older article like this one: https://www.ondernemer24.nl/7-dingen-die-succesvolle-ondernemers-durven-doen your own avatar is visible in all reactions of other persons when you are logged in.

Hope you have a fix for this.

Thanks

ps. I provided new login details.

Hey Peter,

I am really sorry for the delay of this reply as I am actually a little occupied earlier today with some development works. Is it possible that you provide us with the FTP access so that I can take a look at this issue?

Hi Peter,

I am really sorry for the delay of this reply as it took me quite some time to identify the real issue on your site.

It seems like the issue is coming from jomsocial itself where jomsocial will convert any user id that are "null" or "0" to current logged in user hence your comment guest avatar will always follow current logged in user avatar. Unfortunately to fix this issue we need to modify jomsocial core file itself or forcing guest avatar to always use easyblog default avatar instead of jomsocial.

I've applied temporary fix for you inside your /administrator/components/com_easyblog/includes/avatar/avatar.php to always make guest avatar to use easyblog default avatar. Hope these can resolve the issue that you are facing currently.

Hi Peter,

I am really sorry for the delay of this reply. You can download my attachment below and place it inside your /administrator/components/com_easyblog/includes/avatar/ folder for the fix. By the way I've re-applied the fix on your site and it should be working fine now.
