What shortcode do I use to do this and what element should I add? Got this already running form all archives – How can I get rid of the “nothing to be found” message when the author has no posts yet (we still want to display the bio – Where can I set the hero image for each individual author page? thank you for the help September 3, 2020 at 4:55 am #1429130 DavidStaff Customer Support Hi there, Add this PHP Snippet to your site: add_shortcode( 'author_bio', function() { ob_start(); echo wp_kses( get_the_author_meta( 'description' ), null ); return ob_get_clean(); } ); https://docs.generatepress.com/article/adding-php/ Then you can add this shortcode: [author_bio] WordPress doesn’t support featured images for users. You would have to use CSS to set each authors hero background like so: .author-dominic-heselmans .page-hero { background-image: url('url_for_author/image.jpg'); } Documentation: http://docs.generatepress.com/ Adding CSS: http://docs.generatepress.com/article/adding-css/ September 8, 2020 at 4:22 am #1435037 Dominic Hi David, Thank you very much for the feedback.
