Not all authors are listed

    Hi,

    Thanks for a great simple plugin. But I need some help.

    I have different user roles who can contribute posts like below and the numbers in the bracket are total contributors in that role.

    Contributor (126)
    BlogUp Contributor (2)
    BlogUp Guest (135)
    BrandUp (4)

    It seems the plugin is only listing the Contributors (126 users) but not the other authors. Whereas every user has a minimum of at least 1 post published.

    How to include all the authors in the display list? Can you please help?

    Hi @syedmuksit

    You’re welcome, happy to hear you like it.

    It should be including all users who can create posts.

    How were those additional user roles created, did you use a plugin or is it custom code? If a plugin can you let me know which one and if code let me know which exact code do you use, I’ll test it out on my installation and we’ll figure out a solution.

    P.S. Those without any posts are excluded, but they can be included by setting skip_empty to no:

    [authors_list skip_empty="no"]

    Thanks for the prompt response.

    I created those roles by using the “Member” plugin (https://www.ads-software.com/plugins/members/).

    About the skip_empty part, that is working fine and has no issues. The issue with users not listed are the ones with published posts.

    Looking forward.

    I’m sorry for the wait, weekend got in the way.

    Which capabilities do you have selected for those custom roles?

    The following are the permissions/capabilities which are the same as all the capabilities of a Contributor. But it is listing only the Contributors, not the other Role users.

    Read (Granted)
    Upload Files (denied)
    Edit Posts (Granted)
    Delete Posts (denied)
    Edit Published Posts (Granted)

    Hi @syedmuksit

    Just released an update. There’s another parameter in the shortcode that make it include all users with posts, not strictly just authors.

    Example:

    [authors_list only_authors="no"]

    That was quick ?? Thanks! It’s all working fine now and listing all of my contributors with different roles.

    A quick feature suggestion:

    1. You may include pagination.
    2. You may include role wise display like Editors, Authors, Contributors etc.

    Thanks once again for your quick response. Have a great day!
