Default Profile Photo

Hi, is there a way to enable a default profile photo on newly created user accounts? At the moment I’m getting a ‘photo missing’ placeholder, which is not ideal: http://dev.nexusmediacreations.com/Profile_pic.PNG

I’m using WordPress 4.9.6 running Boss. Child Theme 2.4.3 and BuddyPress 3.1.0.

Many thanks in advance.

Take a look at this track ticket:

Could you give that a try?

Just tested it, create a bp-custom.php in your plugins directory and add the following:
```
define ( 'BP_AVATAR_DEFAULT', 'http://example.com/default-avatar.jpg' );
define ( 'BP_AVATAR_DEFAULT_THUMB', 'http://example.com/default-avatar-thumb.jpg' );

add_filter( 'bp_core_fetch_avatar_no_grav', '__return_true' );
```
