I have SSO setup with WordPress and have the SSO Avatar override setting set on discourse so that it uses the avatar URL from my WordPress site.

Did you guys found a solution on this topic? I have the same issue as OP. I am using Wordpress SSO plugin and I configured discourse to use SSO avatar, but it won’t follow up gravatar changes.
