I have installed the ACF plugin and created the author field group to show
Author Description
Experience
Knows about
Personal website
Social Media profiles and everythingBut I don’t know how to add this field to my default author’s archive page.
I need my archive page to be like this: https://www.lifewire.com/christine-baker-4783677
Is there any tutorial on how to do it?

Hi there,
you can use a GP Block Element and GenerateBlocks.
1. In Appearance > Elements -> Add New: Block element.
2. in the element set the Type to Page Hero.
3. set the Display Rules Location to :Author ArchiveThis will create the element before your author archives post loop.
4. In the element block editor you can now build your template.
To get your ACF fields:
5. Add a Headline Block, in its sidebar block settings Activate the
Dynamic Dataand set itsContent SourcetoAuthor Metain the field provided add your ACF field name.Repeat this for each fields
You mean this: https://prnt.sc/-bLyXpGFQgEN
But after publshing all i get is https://prnt.sc/CaWFSpUY6RVB
It shows the old author bio but not the bio I created using ACF
I have created the author meta in ACF and named it “Author” so my ACF field name is Author right?
ACF Author: https://prnt.sc/IKPrJlkgOvG-

The “Author” is just your custom-filed group name, not the actual field name.
You need to replace the
Authorwithauthor_descriptionor other field names.
