hi
from each post, i would like to link my name to the about page. currently i am using this code and it removes the linking of the author url. please let me know how i do i add about page url to my name on the post.
add_filter( 'generate_post_author_output','tu_no_author_link' );
function tu_no_author_link() {
printf( ' <span class="byline">%1$s</span>',
sprintf( '<span class="author vcard" itemtype="http://schema.org/Person" itemscope="itemscope" itemprop="author">%1$s <span class="fn n author-name" itemprop="name">%4$s</span></span>',
__( 'by','generatepress'),
esc_url( get_author_posts_url( get_the_author_meta( 'ID' ) ) ),
esc_attr( sprintf( __( 'View all posts by %s', 'generatepress' ), get_the_author() ) ),
esc_html( get_the_author() )
)
);
if ( is_single() && ! post_password_required() && ( comments_open() || get_comments_number() ) ) {
echo ' | <span class="comments-link">';
comments_popup_link( __( 'Leave a comment', 'generatepress' ), __( '1 Comment', 'generatepress' ), __( '% Comments', 'generatepress' ) );

}Hi there,
Try this:
add_filter( 'generate_post_author_output','tu_no_author_link' );
function tu_no_author_link() {
printf( ' <span class="byline">%1$s</span>',
sprintf( '<span class="author vcard" itemtype="http://schema.org/Person" itemscope="itemscope" itemprop="author">%1$s <a href="%5$s"><span class="fn n author-name" itemprop="name">%4$s</span></a></span>',
__( 'by','generatepress'),
esc_url( get_author_posts_url( get_the_author_meta( 'ID' ) ) ),
esc_attr( sprintf( __( 'View all posts by %s', 'generatepress' ), get_the_author() ) ),
esc_html( get_the_author() ),
'URL TO YOUR ABOUT PAGE HERE'
)
);
if ( is_single() && ! post_password_required() && ( comments_open() || get_comments_number() ) ) {
echo ' | <span class="comments-link">';
comments_popup_link( __( 'Leave a comment', 'generatepress' ), __( '1 Comment', 'generatepress' ), __( '% Comments', 'generatepress' ) );
echo '</span>';
}
}thank you tom. the code worked very well. if i have to add a no follow tag to the about page link, then what should i modify in the code. thanks again.
In the code, find this:
<a href="%5$s">
And replace it with:
<a href="%5$s" rel="nofollow">
thank you tom. the code worked. thanks again.
You're welcome :)
