Profile Pictures Missing on `/wp-admin/credits.php` in Self-hosted Site While Displayed Correctly on Rosetta Site

[kimjiwoon]

Hi team,

I’ve noticed an issue where contributor profile images are not displaying properly on my self-hosted WordPress site’s /wp-admin/credits.php page — it shows the default mystery person icons instead of the actual avatars.

However, when I check the same page on ​https://ko.wordpress.org/wp-admin/credits.php(​https://ko.wordpress.org/wp-admin/credits.php) (the Korean Rosetta site), the images are displaying correctly.

• WordPress version: 6.8
• Site Health: all checks pass without issues

Could someone from the core/meta team take a look or advise how to debug this further?

Thank you!

This appears to be working for me, at least on Playground.

@kimjiwoon Can you clarify that you're seeing this on a fresh WordPress install, without any plugins?

If you can still duplicate it, can you copy the <img> markup for a specific contributor that's not showing and paste it here, and check your browser console for any errors / Network errors.

Replying to dd32:
Update:
I’ve identified the issue — it occurs when the Gravatar Enhanced plugin is activated.

When deactivated, contributor profile images display correctly on /wp-admin/credits.php.

Looks like the plugin modifies or intercepts Gravatar requests in a way that causes a 403 error on that page.

I’ll report this to the plugin author as well, but leaving this note here in case it helps others encountering the same issue.

Thanks for your time and help!

The support topic says this is resolved in the plugin:
