author.php

I am trying to incorporate the plugin into my author.php file (site has multiple authors), which I’m able to do, semi-successfully, using your example. There are two items that aren’t displaying properly:

1) author post archives not showing at all

2) sidebar is being displayed at the bottom of the page (after all other content)

I’m not a very good coder (teaching myself as I go), so my code could be terribly messy:

<?php
get_header(); ?>

<div id="container">
<div id="content" role="main">

<?php

if ( have_posts() )
the_post();
?>

<h1 class="page-title author"><?php printf( __( 'Author Archives: %s', 'Lucid' ), "<span class='vcard'><a class='url fn n' href='" . get_author_posts_url( get_the_author_meta( 'ID' ) ) . "' title='" . esc_attr( get_the_author() ) . "' rel='me'>" . get_the_author() . "</a></span>" ); ?></h1>

<?php
if (function_exists ('wpb_the_biography_box')) {
wpb_the_biography_box ();
}

rewind_posts();

get_template_part( 'loop', 'author' );
?>
</div><!-- #content -->
</div><!-- #container -->

<?php get_sidebar(); ?>
<?php get_footer(); ?>

I am able to get the author post archives displaying correctly like this (BUT the sidebar is still messed up):

<?php get_header();
?>

<div id="content-area" class="clearfix">
  <div id="left-area">
     <?php get_template_part('includes/breadcrumbs', 'index');
     ?>

     <!-- This sets the $curauth variable -->

     <div><?php
$curauth = (isset($_GET['author_name'])) ? get_user_by('slug', $author_name) : get_userdata(intval($author));
       ?>
       <h1> <p style = "font-size: 40px"><?php echo $curauth->nickname;
          ?></p></h1>
       <?php the_author_image();
       ?>
       <br>
       <dl>
          <dd><h4><?php echo $curauth->user_description;
            ?></h4></dd>
       </dl></div>

     <h3>Posts by <?php echo $curauth->nickname;
       ?>:</h3>
     <br>
     <ul>

       <?php if (have_posts()) : while (have_posts()) : the_post();
       ?>
       <?php get_template_part('includes/entry', 'index');
       ?>
       <?php
endwhile;
if (function_exists('wp_pagenavi')) {
  wp_pagenavi();
}
else {
  get_template_part('includes/navigation','entry');
}
else:
get_template_part('includes/no-results','entry');
endif;
       ?>

       <!-- end #left-area -->

       <?php if ( ! $fullwidth ) get_sidebar();
       ?>

       <!-- end #content-area -->

       <?php get_footer();
       ?>

I am using the Lucid theme from Elegant Themes. Sorry for the long post and thank you SO MUCH for any assistance you might be able to provide!
