I don't know how feasible this is because I don't know much about Zenforo. That said, per the screenshot, has there been consideration into replacing "his/her" with "their" for notifications when someone adds an entry to their blog?

"Their" would likely be viewed as a much more gender-neutral term and also would look/read cleaner, in my opinion.

This has been brought up before (Can't remember the thread or remember the conclusion of it!) and basically yeah I agree with @Dionicio3, it should use your profile gender to choose the pronoun and relapse to "their" if you didnt specify one, then everyone is happy!

I feel like it should be determined by whatever gender they have set on their profile, and (unspecified) would use "their"
It would be nice but it's not that easy. I'll change it to "their" for now as it's totally inclusive.
