Comments include not only the name of the commenter but also an image. This is the default image and the image that will appear for public comments:
Sample reader comment field with a user icon
Sample comment field with no user icon added
Logged in authors and readers can customize this image:
- When commenting, by clicking the Update image link (this text is customizable, so it might say something different in your knowledge base!)
- For authors, by clicking on your profile icon/name in the upper right and either
- Selecting My Account to update your own image, or
- Selecting Authors, clicking on the author whose image you want to update, and updating their author profile
Update the author's picture/icon
- Authors can also add images for readers by going to your profile icon/name in the upper right, selecting Readers, clicking on the Reader account, and updating the image in the reader's profile.
Update the reader's picture/icon
