Author byline

You’ll need to modify your theme and include this function to show off the profile picture.

It also works with gravatars, so you can use get_avatar as well: https://codex.www.ads-software.com/Function_Reference/get_avatar

Thanks for the quick reply. Not quite understanding though (sorry, I’m not very technical, thus the reason for using a plugin versus coding it myself).

So in the first link, which template do I add the argument to and which one for the usage?

Thanks

You would hopefully be using a child theme so that your updates aren’t lost.

You would want to update single.php in your theme, and include the code where you want the byline to go. You would look for .entry-author and add the code in that.

For example:

<span class="entry-author"><?php echo get_avatar( $post->post_author, 50 ); ?></span>

Then in your CSS, which you can edit in the customizer:

.entry-author:before {
    display: none;
}
