## Description

AM-Avatar is a lightweight and efficient WordPress plugin that allows users to upload
custom profile pictures directly from their user profile page.

Key features:
 * **Automatic WebP Conversion:** All uploaded images are automatically
converted to WebP format for superior performance and smaller file sizes. * **Smart
Integration:** Seamlessly replaces the default Gravatar section on the profile page
using a native-looking interface. * **Organized Storage:** Keeps your uploads folder
clean by storing all avatars in a dedicated `/uploads/am-avatar/` directory. * **
Settings Page:** Includes a dedicated settings menu to manage plugin preferences.***
Cleanup Option:** Choose whether to permanently delete all uploaded data and settings
when the plugin is uninstalled. * **Security First:** Includes Nonce verification,
strict sanitization, and WP_Filesystem API integration. * **Performance:** Automatically
resizes images to 150x150px to ensure fast loading times. * **Privacy Friendly:**
No external calls to Gravatar servers when a custom avatar is set.

## FAQ

### Where are the images stored?

All custom avatars are stored in the `wp-content/uploads/am-avatar/` folder.

### Does it delete old files?

Yes, the plugin automatically deletes the previous avatar file from the server when
a new one is uploaded or when you choose to delete your custom picture.

### What happens to my data if I delete the plugin?

You can control this in the plugin settings. If the “Delete data on uninstall” option
is checked, all uploaded images and database entries will be permanently removed
upon deletion. Otherwise, the files remain on your server.
