  • If you use the template tag, wp_list_authors(), you can list the authors in your blog–you would likely put that code in your sidebar.php.

    i want to have it so when users see the authors name in the article. They can click on the authors name, and it will tyake them to the profile of that author. Not to list all authors..

    I already use author pages, but i cant seem to get permalinks working with the plugin i am using. So i have to change the text the link to the authors profile page. To something other than

    sitename.com/author/authorname/

    i need to go back to sitename.com/?author=5

    the code i use now is

    <td style=”border-style: solid; border-width: 1px”> More By the Same Author: /author/<?php the_author_login(); ?>/”><?php the_author() ?> 
    </td>

    Unless someone can help me wioth the htaccess/permalinks problem. This is what i have to do.

    hope that made sense

    thx in advance

    I figured it out.. ?? thx

    i used <?php the_author_posts_link(); ?>

    and worked great.

    And i installed the same site on the root instead of the subfolder of my hosting and permalinks worked just fine…grrr..

    so i need to know how to make wordpress know that my site is in a subfolder off my hosting root.. something in the htacces file?

    I am setup like so

    main site(root) permalinks are fine
    >>testersite(subfolder off the root) permalinks not fine.

    hope that makes sense.
    any help would be appreciated.
