    When you click on her name, “Jeri Goldstein,” you’re sent to ?author=2 which does not exist. How can I change it? She wants it to go to her bio page instead.

    Appreciate your help.

  • Hi @hehafner,

    When you click on her name, “Jeri Goldstein,” you’re sent to ?author=2 which does not exist.

    I’m seeing a 404 error when clicking on the author name from the email. However, the author page on the site itself is working:

    https://performingbiz.com/author/jgnmt/

    I think we are going to need to take a closer look at this so it would be great if you could email support (at) jetpack (dot) com.

    I also noticed WordPress doesn’t appear to be handling 404 errors so it would be worth speaking to your host about that — normally, a 404 error would be displayed as part of your site (in the style of the theme) rather than a blank page.

    Thanks!
