How to add author box and notification bar
24 replies · Started by Swadhin on October 12, 2018
Is it possible, to use a self hostet avatar and also link the "read more" to an about page?
Hi there,
you would need a plugin like this:
https://en-gb.wordpress.org/plugins/avatar-manager/
If you're the only author then you could edit the script provided to link to that about page. If not you would need to redirect to a static page for each author.
Okay, i have the plugin instaled. Can you tell me,how to edit the script? Because i am the only user
So in the script here:
https://generatepress.com/forums/topic/how-to-add-author-box-and-notification-bar/#post-699300
Look for this line:
<a href="<?php echo get_author_posts_url( get_the_author_meta( 'ID' ) ); ?>" title="Read more">
and add your link in place of the <?php ie.
<a href="add_the_full_url_to_your_about page" title="Read more">
Hi,
I added the code as directed but facing a few issues --
1) in some posts the Author name and description are coming in same line - https://welderpick.com/baking/pumpkin-banana-loaf/
2) The boundary around the box is missing
It does not seem to be like this - https://gpsites.co/volume/style-guide/
Any help will be appreciated.
Hi, I have been able to solve the border issues but the formatting is still not working for some posts.
Hi there,
Your site is under maintenance, so we can't see the issue.
I am sorry here it is - https://thewatercritic.com/19-2/ I have been able to solve the issue related to author box but the number "1" at the bottom of the page still remains.
Hi there,
Does that number remain if all of your other plugins are deactivated?
If not, what if you temporarily disable any Hook Elements or custom functions?
