Description

I saw this case opened in the past but marked stale, however, it is still relevant (reference). Webhook pushes to discord work from local Gitea servers, however, the user image does not get populated since it's referencing an internal address. Discord is likely filtering this out upon receiving the request. The same problem happens for the Avatar URL (Icon URL as it's labeled), but this one can be removed or set differently in the Webhook settings.

I'd suggest another field in the webhook options - User Icon Override URL. If set, all user images can be populated from the specified value rather than their derived value. It's possible this can be populated from Gravitar, alternatively if available. I've highlighted the problematic values in the logs below.

@techknowlogick commented on GitHub (Feb 7, 2021):

There are many possible combinations of possible webhook modifications. We are looking into plugins/webhook templates, as this would be a better case for that. Until then I recommend using something like openfaas/faasd to use as a webhook modifier. I recently wrote a blog post on how to configure Gitea & OpenFaaS/faasd.
