Contacts: Profile Picture
A contact’s profile picture adds a visual touch to their record in Groundhogg, making it easier to recognize them in your contact list or reports. By default, Groundhogg uses the WordPress Gravatar associated with a contact’s email if they’re linked to a user account.
Three Ways to Change the Profile Picture
- Update the Gravatar Account
If the contact has a WordPress user account tied to their email:- Visit gravatar.com, log in with the contact’s email, and upload a new image.
- Groundhogg will automatically display this image in the contact record.
- Use a Plugin to Upload a Custom Image
Install a plugin to override the Gravatar with a local image:- Add a plugin like One User Avatar to your WordPress site.
- Go to Users > Profile for the linked user, upload an image to the media library, and save it as their profile picture.
- Groundhogg will display this image instead of the Gravatar.
- Add a Profile Picture via Metadata
Manually set an image URL in the contact’s metadata:- Open the contact record and click the More tab.
- Add a new metadata field with the name profile_picture.
- Enter the full URL of an image (e.g., https://example.com/myimage.jpg) as the value.
- Save the changes, and the image will appear in the contact’s profile.
