The Global Avatar module is useful in multi-site environments where the user table is shared and avatars should be consistent across the network of sites. Specifically, it is designed to solve the issue raised in the post Multisite with shared user table, but how to share user pictures? This module is compatible with the ImageCache Profiles project.
Maintainer
Global Avatar is maintained by Chris Pliakas. The original development of this module was sponsored by CommonPlaces e-Solutions, LLC.
Widgets enables you to centrally manage and configure code snippets on your site such as share and follow buttons or Twitter updates and Facebook like boxes. It implements a user interface that allows you to easily organize and configure various widget elements. Using a UI similar to core’s image styles, elements can be assembled into widget sets which can be reused throughout the site via blocks and other render displays.
The Widgets module is primarily a user interface API and as such includes only generic markup widgets. You can add new custom widgets using the widget definition admin or enable modules that provide widgets. There are several dozen widgets available through the Social media and Service links modules.
Usage
Installation. Use standard methods to install the Widgets archive files into your Drupal site. Then go to admin > modules and enable the Widgets module. You will want to install the Social media and/or Service links modules also to provide widget sources.
To display widget sets on your site use the blocks admin at admin > structure > blocks or other method for managing blocks such as Context or Panels. Look for blocks that start with the label "Widgets:" Several pre-built widget sets are provided by the Social media module.
