[Resolved] Author Boxes Displaying Weirdly

[Jodie]

Hi,

On my site, I’ve used a PHP snippet to display an author box only on one archive page, but it’s showing underneath every post in the page.

How do I fix this please? Thanks for your help!

Cheers Jodie

Hi Jodie,

To clarify, are you referring to the Element called “Author Block”? If so, it’s set to display on All Posts through the display rules.

Hi Fernando,

Yes, I’ve set it to not display on “Author Archives” but it’s still displaying.

Any ideas on how to fix this?

Thanks!

Cheers Jodie

I see. You have this custom code in your functions.php file:

add_filter( 'generate_element_display', function( $display, $element_id ) {
    if ( 1526839 === $element_id && is_author( 'jodie-morgan' ) ) {
        $display = true;
    }

    return $display;
}, 10, 2 );

This code is the one setting the Element to display on that specific Author Archive page. You can remove that if you want it not to display there.
