Hi Brajesh, I have been using the code below to use different avatars based on gender, but it is not working anymore with typing in field gender names.

Therefore I was looking at your suggestion for ‘using id for performance reasons’ I know the gender field id, but this is the same for both genders, so how do I find the specific id for each gender?

Regards
Carsten

//Using different default Avatar for BuddyPress 

//Disable Gravatar 

add_filter( 'bp_core_fetch_avatar_no_grav', '__return_true' );

//Using different default avatar based on BuddyPress profile field

function buddydev_set_default_avatar_based_on_profile_field_data( $avatar, $params ) {

	$user_id          = $params['item_id'];
	$field_id_or_name = 32;//Gender field Id, You may use field name e.g 'Gender';
	//I suggest using id for performance reasons

	$gender = xprofile_get_field_data( $field_id_or_name, $user_id );
	$gender = strtolower( $gender );
	if ( $gender == 'man' ) {
		$avatar = 'https://domain/wp-content/uploads/2020/01/avatar_male_02.jpg';
	} elseif ( $gender == 'woman' ) {
		$avatar = 'https:/domain/wp-content/uploads/2020/01/avatar_female_02.jpg';
	} else {
		$avatar = 'https://domain/wp-content/uploads/2019/10/me-sep.png';
	}

	// note, you may play with the $param['type'] and use different image for full|thumb.
	return $avatar;
}
