Create an Author box for Google E-A-T support

Just as an additional note:

I have already an Element created for the Author Block

Here are the settings for this Element, can we use it under each article?

Thank You!

Hi there,

If you want to reuse your current author box, then:

1. edit your current Hook and copy that HTML

2. create a new Hook eleement and paste in that code.
3. set the Hook to 'generate_after_content` hook
4. set the Display Rules to Posts > All Posts.

And BTW that article from Ezoic regarding GenerateBlocks performance, can i just say: its the worst written post i have ever read and we will whole heartedly dispute that GenerateBlocks causes performance issues.... i just don't think the author knows what they are talking about lol

Thank you @David,

I created a new Element hook generate_after_content with a new <div class> so we can do some CSS design.

<div class="authors-bio-wrapper-posts">
<div class="authors-bio-posts">

You can check it here at the bottom of this article:

I would like still to improve it. It's not nice.

1) it's showing very down after the Post Nav. I need to be displayed before that and completely detached.
2) How can I add a small round photo of the author?

My objective for the Author box is to be like this:

P.S. I agree with you about Ezoic regarding GenerateBlocks performance. It's not clear :)

Thank you @David!

The simplest method would be an author box plugin for that design.
Or if you're happy to use GenreateBlocks and the Block Element, then this video explains how:

Thank you @David,

I am following @Leo's Author Box 2 guide, however, I am not seeing the Block Element setting when I create a new Element as a Block.
Please check the screenshot below.
What could be the reason?

Thanks!

Are you using the Classic Editor plugin or some other plugin/function to disable the block editor ?

Yes, exactly I am using the Classic Editor plugin.
I like to use it to write articles.
I thought about it that could be the issue. I disabled it temporarily and then tried to create a new Block Element, but still, I cannot see the Block Element section on the right side.

What is the solution in this case?

Thank You @David!

In Appearance > Elements -> Add New, did you choose Block from the list ?

Hello @David,

I found the issue. I was using the following filter to disable the Block Editor completely on my site for better performance.

add_filter('use_block_editor_for_post_type', '__return_false', 10);

I still have the Classic Editor plugin, then I can choose to switch between both Editors.

I will continue creating the Author Box and let you know if I have further questions.

Thank You!

Glad to hear you found the issue

Hello @David,

Finally, I managed to create the Author Box, it's kind of many steps :)

Please have a look here.

First, I need to place it before the Related Posts <h2>, please.

Second, the Author's Avatar image is not working, and not showing.
If I look under the profile.php section in WordPress, there is no option for the avatar image.
I remember that it used to be there, but not anymore.
If I log into https://wordpress.com/me, then I can see my avatar image and I can change it.
How can we load it to the Element Block Author Box, please?

Thank You!

If you check the author's user profile at dashboard > users, does the avatar show correctly?

First, I need to place it before the Related Posts <h2>, please.

What are the hooks are you using for the author box and the title of the related post?
And What are the priority set for the two elements?

Will you consider combing the author box and related posts in the same element?

Thank you @Ying,

No, I don't see the avatar photo under dashboard > users for my account.
The Author's avatar is not there.

The Related Posts is not a hook. I add it automatically to every post as text and then I set it to h2. So it's not an element.

The Priority for the Author Element Block is set to 5 as described by @Leo's video.

Yes, I can consider combing the Author box and Related Posts in the same element.

Could you please advise?

Thank You!

No, I don’t see the avatar photo under dashboard > users for my account.

Avatar is not something the theme can control, it's a WP option.
So you'll have to figure out why the avatar doesn't show in your user account.

I add it automatically to every post as text and then I set it to h2. So it’s not an element.

Not sure I understand the description, do you mean manually adding it to every post?
