Changes in User Profile Not Sticky

Update:

(1) and (2) are working. Perhaps it was due to some configuration setting. Observation (If anyone else faces a similar problem) – These resolved after I created a custom tab and then removed it to add Author’s Posts tab.

(3) – How to remove the default link to Author’s name to his/her profile? Can someone help here please?

Thank you

Update:

(3) – Though disabling author archives (via Yoast) works, it’s only a partial solution. Your plugin continues to insert a hyperlink – which is then redirected to home page. Is there a way to disable the hyperlink on Author’s name?

Thank you

Hello, @backpackingseries !

Thank you for using our plugin.
Apologies for the late response.

For your last query, you will need to remove the anchor tag from the code. Please go to ..\wp-content\plugins\ultimate-author-box-lite\inc\frontend\frontend-default\components folder and replace the code in the uab-component-name.php file with the following code:

<?php defined( 'ABSPATH' ) or die( 'No script kiddies please!' ); ?>
<?php
if($uab_template_type == 'uab-template-5'){
	?>
	<?php if(!empty($uab_profile_data[0]['uab_company_designation']) || !empty($uab_profile_data[0]['uab_company_separator']) || !empty($uab_profile_data[0]['uab_company_name'])):?>
		<div class="uab-company-info">
			<?php if(!empty($uab_profile_data[0]['uab_company_designation'])):?>
				<span class="uab-company-designation">
					<?php esc_html_e($uab_profile_data[0]['uab_company_designation']);?>
				</span> 
			<?php endif;?>
			<?php
			if (!empty($uab_profile_data[0]['uab_company_url'])){
				
				?><span class="uab-designation-separator"><?php
				isset($uab_profile_data[0]['uab_company_separator'])?esc_html_e($uab_profile_data[0]['uab_company_separator']):esc_html_e(' at','ultimate-author-box');?></span>
				
				
				<a href="<?php esc_attr_e($uab_profile_data[0]['uab_company_url']);?>" target="<?php esc_attr_e($uab_general_settings['uab_link_target_option']);?>"><?php esc_html_e($uab_profile_data[0]['uab_company_name']);?></a>
				<?php
			}
			?>
		</div>
	<?php endif;?>
	<div class="uab-display-name">
		<!-- User Display Name -->
		<?php esc_html_e(the_author_meta( 'display_name', $author_id)); ?>
	</div>
	<?php
}
else{
	?>
	<div class="uab-display-name">
		<!-- User Display Name -->
		<?php esc_html_e(the_author_meta( 'display_name', $author_id)); ?>
		
		<?php
		if($uab_template_type == 'uab-template-1'){
			$user_meta=get_userdata($author_id);
			$user_roles=$user_meta->roles;
			$user_role_lists = $this->get_editable_roles();

			foreach($user_role_lists as $user_role_list => $value){
		//echo $user_role_list;
				foreach($user_roles as $role=>$val){
			//echo $val;
					if($user_role_list == $val){
						?><span class="uab-user-role"><?php esc_html_e($user_role_lists[$user_role_list]['name']);?></span><?php
					}
				}
			}
		}?>
	</div>
	<?php if(!empty($uab_profile_data[0]['uab_company_designation']) || !empty($uab_profile_data[0]['uab_company_separator']) || !empty($uab_profile_data[0]['uab_company_name'])):?>
		<div class="uab-company-info">
			<span class="uab-company-designation">
				<?php esc_html_e($uab_profile_data[0]['uab_company_designation']);?>
			</span> <?php
			if (!empty($uab_profile_data[0]['uab_company_url'])){
				?><span class="uab-designation-separator"><?php
				isset($uab_profile_data[0]['uab_company_separator'])?esc_html_e($uab_profile_data[0]['uab_company_separator']):esc_html_e(' at','ultimate-author-box');?></span>
				
				<a href="<?php esc_attr_e($uab_profile_data[0]['uab_company_url']);?>" target="<?php esc_attr_e($uab_general_settings['uab_link_target_option']);?>"><?php esc_html_e($uab_profile_data[0]['uab_company_name']);?></a>
				<?php
			}
			?>
		</div>
	<?php endif;?>
	<?php
}

Hope this helps.

Thank you!

@bikeshdhakal

Thank you. I’ve posted a well-deserved 5-star review!

For practical reasons, using your plugin replaces the utility of the default (& unweildy) author archives on my site. It’d be great if you could provide an admin feature to do so i.e. override the WP author archives (or atleast a feature to not hyperlink to author archives). I request this feature since I’m not comfortable modifying plugin files directly.

Thanks again

Kind regards

Abhijeet

Hello Backpackingseries,

Thank you for the suggestion.

We will look into it and add an option to disable the author archive link in the next update.

If you like our plugin please add a review here https://www.ads-software.com/support/plugin/ultimate-author-box-lite/reviews/#new-post

Your feedback and support would mean a lot to us.

Thak you!

Thank you so much! Look forward to the update!

Actually, I added the 5-star review before my previous message. I guess something went wrong on my mobile browser. Nonetheless, it is now available here.

Kind regards

Abhijeet

@bikeshdhakal

Thank you for the quick action on that request. Really appreciate your responsiveness. I wish there was a way to bump up the review ratings further ??

PS: The latest update, while taking away the redirect to author archive, leaves behind a hover-link (no redirect) on the author name. Wonder if it might be possible to completely remove the link hover effect (it can confuse site visitors).

Hello Backpackingseries,

Thank you for the review.

We left the anchor tag behind because we didn’t want to override a lot of CSS for all the templates.
You can just write some CSS to fix it. If you need any assistance, please write to us at support@accesspressthemes.com with your site URL. We will help you there.

Thank you!

@bikeshdhakal

I think I can manage the CSS via inspect tool.

Thank you once again for a quick response and the offer to help.

Kind regards

Abhijeet
