favatars fixed for WordPress 2.5.x

You like to have a gravatar close to each comment of your blog but… what about an icon near your pingbacks/trackbacks? The solution is: use the favatars plugin.

Unfortunately, it doesn’t install on WordPress 2.5.x, so I’ve just opened a ticket (with a patch) that fixes this problem and that speeds up its one-time favatising SQL query (making it loops over pingbacks/trackbacks only).

It seems that its author doesn’t maintain it anymore so I’ve just put here the modified version of it (with my patch applied).

    kOoLiNuS: mmm… maybe. :) A feature that I think it should have is caching (avoiding to http_get remote favicons).
