Hello,

I’m using the latest version of Discourse and have Gravatars enabled, avatar uploads enabled, but file uploads turned off (no extensions are whitelisted). We also have SSO enabled but avatars via SSO disabled.

When a user asks the site to manually refresh his gravatar, Discourse does not pull in a new gravatar. How can I fix this?
