Authors Page

Hi steffabach. By “Up there” do you mean in the page title that displays the person icon, “AUTHOR: ” and the author’s name? Not sure what you mean by “description of the authors”. The “profile image” is created by linking the user profile email address to an image on https://en.gravatar.com/. Adding items to the page title will require editing the theme template file /parts/page-title.php in a child theme. If you’re not currently using a child theme you can create one by following the description here:

hey bdbrown,
Google has translated stupid.
I would like to view the profile of the author on the author page blank (name, website, biography, etc).
Is that even without Childtheme? I see in here no sense (maybe I have the sense of Childthemes not get it: 3)
best regards of Swabia

THe theme doesn’t include an “author.php” page so it defaults to using the archive.php file, listing the author name in the page title. If you want to display the author profile information on a separate page you’ll need to create an author.php file; to do that you need a child theme.

This article describes how to copy the theme template archive.php file and modify it to create an author.php file:

This article describes how to create the author.php file based on using the template of one of the default WP themes:

You can find a list of the various author profile metadata items in the “Customising the Author Template” section of the second article.

Hi steffabach, I don’t know how comfortable would you be for this, but I’m using an external plugin for author profile and this is fantastic.
