Are these migrated comments? Could you please disable wpDiscuz and check it again?
No, these comments were fresh. It is weird as the + isn’t showing a pattern for me. Special character, link, etc sometimes are affected but not always. I did deactivate the plugin, emptied my email, and reactivated. I cleared the gravatar cache but that didn’t work.
I have had a weird thing happen on gravars too. My native comments deleted all default gravatars except the shadow person and blank. I had added my brand. I realize these won’t affect my comments, and the blue gravatr G was showing, so I marked the blank person. Every little bit the blue G shows again. I haven’t seen it though for two days. Just mentioning in case it is related.
Please deactivate wpDiscuz and don't activate it, just check comments whne wpDiscuz is deactivated.
I responded to this yesterday with some screenshots but I do not see it here. Bottom line is with the plugin deactivated all coments and email notification reverted back without + in the name. Turned back on and the problem was back.
This issue is already fixed, we're releasing new version very soon.
Thank you!!Looking forward to the release.
