[Resolved] Author Styling works great… except on author pages

[Jen]

I found this really cool author styling somewhere on the Generatepress website (this is copied from my customizer):

/* Author Styling */
.entry-meta:not(footer),
.entry-meta .posted-on,
.entry-meta .author-wrap {
    display: flex;
}

.entry-meta {
    align-items: center;
    justify-content: center;
}

.entry-meta .posted-on,
.entry-meta .author-wrap {
    flex-direction: column;
    font-size: 16px;
    padding: 0 25px;
    flex: 1;
}

.entry-meta .posted-on {
    text-align: right;
}

.entry-meta .label {
    font-size: 14px;
    color: #aaa;
    margin-bottom: 0.25em;
}

.author img {
    width: 60px;
    height: 60px;
    border-radius: 50%;
    vertical-align: middle;
}

It works great and looks great on regular blog pages, and the design elements are fine on non-blog pages. The exception is on author pages, like the URL I included. It’s more of an annoyance than anything else, but it makes me crazy that I can’t figure it out. Thanks! I love what I’ve been able to do with this theme.

Hi there,

Just to confirm, basically, you’d like to exclude the CSS above from applying to the author archives?

Let me know 🙂

[Jen]

Huh. Yeah, I think that would work! I didn’t think of it that way. How would I do that? Thanks! Jen

Try this CSS instead:

/* Author Styling */
body:not(.author) .entry-meta:not(footer),
body:not(.author) .entry-meta .posted-on,
body:not(.author) .entry-meta .author-wrap {
    display: flex;
}

body:not(.author) .entry-meta {
    align-items: center;
    justify-content: center;
}

body:not(.author) .entry-meta .posted-on,
body:not(.author) .entry-meta .author-wrap {
    flex-direction: column;
    font-size: 16px;
    padding: 0 25px;
    flex: 1;
}

body:not(.author) .entry-meta .posted-on {
    text-align: right;
}

body:not(.author) .entry-meta .label {
    font-size: 14px;
    color: #aaa;
    margin-bottom: 0.25em;
}

body:not(.author) .author img {
    width: 60px;
    height: 60px;
    border-radius: 50%;
    vertical-align: middle;
}

That works! Thanks!

No problem 🙂
