Incorporate Co-Authors Plus

Hi @dckevin,
Which code are you looking for? Please let me know in detail so that I can help you with that. You can explain in detail what you’re trying to achieve. Thanks.

Hi @themegrillteam,

Sorry for not providing in detail explanation. I’m looking to incorporate “Co-Authors Plus” plugin – https://www.ads-software.com/plugins/co-authors-plus/. It basically allows to add multiple authors to a blog post.

I’ve already installed the plugin and I can add multiple authors to a blog post but secondary authors don’t show up in front-end. Based on the following guide – https://wpvip.com/documentation/incorporate-co-authors-plus-template-tags-into-your-theme/, it mentions to integrate template tags within the theme files – https://wpvip.com/documentation/incorporate-co-authors-plus-template-tags-into-your-theme/#integrating-template-tags-into-your-theme.

I’m not sure where exactly I can find the code block mentioned within the theme files. Can you please help me with this.

Thanks & Regards,
Kevin

Hi @dckevin,

The code you are looking for is located in inc/template-tags.php.

Hi @asheshmagar,

Thank you for your response. I tried updating the code in inc/template-tags.php but it doesn’t work.

Here is the code that I implemented:

if ( function_exists( 'coauthors_posts_links' ) ) {
			$byline = coauthors_posts_links( null, null, null, null, false );
		}
		else {
 			$byline = sprintf(
 				$author_text,
 				'<span class="author vcard"><a class="url fn n" href="' . esc_url( get_author_posts_url( get_the_author_meta( 'ID' ) ) ) . '">' . esc_html( get_the_author() ) . '</a></span>'
 			);
		}

Within – if ( ! function_exists( 'zakra_posted_by' ) ) : block. Can you please verify if this is the correct place to update.

Thanks,
Kevin
