Author links not CaPitALized right…grr.

Look in your style.css, in the sidebar area. It’s possible that there’s a style there that says:

text-transform: lowercase

Just take that part out.

thanks but, it’s not the viewing of the url, its the actual url being generated – one is lower one is upper.

Sorry I misread your post.

That’s odd. Right now, I haven’t got a clue.

its something to do with how list_authors displays the name vs. the_author_firstname

..but I can’t figure out what…grr. anyone know? or anyone know how I can do this any other way *but link to the exact same url*?

Try changing this…
<?php the_author_firstname(); ?>
into…
<?php strtolower(the_author_firstname()); ?>

It’s not exactly a nice way… more like a workaround which doesn’t deal with the origin of your problem, but it should be good enough for now ;).

thanks Sivar, but that didn’t work…man I was hoping that would solve it too ??

Why didn’t that work? What’s the output? Maybe you can try something like…

<?php $firstname = get_the_author_firstname();
$firstname = strtolower($firstname); ?>

… and when it comes to outputting…
`<?php echo $firstname; ?>

this works, thanks a lot!
