I'm using the following hook for a bio box, but when you click on the link to get to the author's posts (in the author-links div) it just takes you to the home page, not the author's posts. How do I change it to go to the author's posts? Also, how do I change the font size on the text displayed for the link (where it is currently showing ...) as it is really large now. thanks

<?php echo get_avatar( get_the_author_meta( 'ID' ), 250 ); ?>

Hi Kiva,

There's no href attribute in your <a> tag. You need to add something like this to retrieve the author archive page link: https://developer.wordpress.org/reference/functions/get_author_posts_url/

You'll need custom CSS to change the font-size. You can also use the Typography module: https://docs.generatepress.com/article/dynamic-typography-overview/

Alternatively, you can use a Block Element instead: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4x6CjGOyagc

Using a Block Element is what we would suggest.
