Author Bios

Hello,
What's the fastest, easiest way, to show author bios on the bottom of blog posts please? So we already have the feature to show who's writing the blog post, but - please see here for example: https://www.totallypurrfect.com/games-to-play-with-your-cat/ - when you see the name, it doesn't allow you to click on it, to be able to read more... (so that's one way to do it?) But ideally, I'd have the bio looking like this at the bottom of the post (which is automatically added on, depending on who you list the writer as): https://roundpeg.biz/wp-content/uploads/2014/05/Sample-Author-Box.jpg
Let me know the best way to go about it please.
Thanks so much,
Ella
Hi Ella,
The featured image/post meta part is added using a block element - page hero, you can find it at appearance > elements > Single Post Hero.
You can enable the dynamic link by clicking on the database icon, and choosing author archive as the link type.

To add an author box, these videos should help:

Amazing, thank you so much. Super happy with how this looks now! Can you just please tell me how I can reduce the space below the author bio here please? ---> https://www.totallypurrfect.com/author/ella/
Thanks again!

Hi there,
try adding this CSS:
.archive .site-main .page-header {
padding-bottom: 0;
}as you have masonry on your posts, make sure to refresh or resize the browser if you don't see any initial change.
