    I have created an Author box using these codes.

    Added a Hook at after_content:

    <div class="author-box">
    	<?php 
    	
    	global $post;
    	
    	$author_id = $post->post_author;
    	
    	?>
    	
    	<div class="avatar"><?php echo get_avatar( get_the_author_meta( $author_id )); ?></div>
     
            <h5 class="author-title"><?php printf( esc_attr__( 'About %s', 'the author' ), get_the_author_meta( 'display_name') );?></h5>
    	
    				<div class="author-summary">
    	
            <p class="author-description"><?php echo wp_kses( get_the_author_meta( 'description' ), null ); ?></p>
     
            <div class="author-links">
     
                <a>" title="Read more">
                    ...
                </a>
     
            </div>
     
        </div>
     
    </div>

    and this CSS:

    .author-links a {
        font-size: 3em;
        line-height: 0.5em;
        float: right;
    }
    
    .author-box {
        padding: 4%;
        margin-top: 60px;
        font-size: 0.8em;
        display: -webkit-box;
        display: -ms-flexbox;
        display: flex;
        -ms-flex-wrap: wrap;
            flex-wrap: wrap;
    }
    
    .author-box .avatar {
        width: 30px;
        border-radius: 100%;
        margin-right: 20px;
    }
    
    h5.author-title {
        margin-bottom: 0.5em;
    }

    Everything is working fine except for Gravatar images of the author.

    Please help me with this.

    Hi there,

    Instead of this:

    <?php echo get_avatar( get_the_author_meta( $author_id )); ?>

    Can you try this?:

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

    Let me know πŸ™‚

    Hi, Tom!

    Thanks for this, It is working.

    How can I create a border and change the background colour of the box?

    May I ask you some off-topic questions?

    Just curious to know about languages need to learn to create a WordPress theme and Plugins?

    I inspired by you a lot after using GeneratePress from last 2 years.

    Something like this should work:

    .author-box {
        background-color: #efefef;
        border: 1px solid #dddddd;
    }

    Thank you! I would say PHP, CSS and Javascript are the best languages to dive into if you’re interested in WordPress development πŸ™‚
