Repository metrics are context, not quality scores. Active installations measure adoption and can strongly reflect a plugin’s age and historical popularity. Ratings, recent updates and “Tested up to” metadata also do not guarantee modern code, error-free operation, security, feature completeness or suitability for a particular site.

About this plugin
Letter Avatars enables custom avatars for users without gravatar. Avatar will be replaced with the first letter of username or e-mail.
