    I’m having a bit of a problem with the about author info showing up in multiple places. Here’s an example: The Board

    I’ve looked through my author.php file and I cannot seem to find the spot where that information is generated again. Any help is appreciated.

    <?php get_header();?>
    
    <div id="content">
    	<div class="left"><div class="lpadding">
    		<?php get_sidebar(); ?>
    	</div></div>
    	<div class="center"><div class="cpadding">
    		<?php if (have_posts()) : while (have_posts()) : the_post(); ?>
    
    <?php
    if(isset($_GET['author_name'])) :
    $curauth = get_userdatabylogin($author_name);
    else :
    $curauth = get_userdata(intval($author));
    endif;
    ?>
    
    <h2>About: <?php echo $curauth->nickname; ?></h2>
    <dl>
    <dt>Website</dt>
    <dd><a href="<?php echo $curauth->user_url; ?>"><?php echo $curauth->user_url; ?></a></dd>
    <dt>Profile</dt>
    <dd><?php echo $curauth->user_description; ?></dd>
    </dl>
    
    <h2>Posts by <?php echo $curauth->nickname; ?>:</h2>
    
    		<div class="title">
    			<h1><a href="<?php the_permalink() ?>" target="_self"><?php the_title(); ?></a></h1>
    			<h4><?php _e("Posted in: "); ?><?php the_category(',') ?><?php _e(" by "); ?><?php the_author_posts_link() ?><?php _e(" on "); ?><?php the_time('F j, Y'); ?><?php _e(" "); ?><?php edit_post_link(__('Edit')); ?></h4>
    		</div>
    
    		<?php the_content(__('(more...)')); ?>
    		<div class="clear"></div>
    
    		<div class="tags">Tags: <?php the_tags('', ', ', ''); ?></div>
    		<div class="permalink"><?php comments_popup_link(__('Comments (0)'), __('Comments (1)'), __('Comments (%)')); ?></div>
    
    		<?php comments_template(); // Get wp-comments.php template ?>
    
    	<?php endwhile; else: ?>
    	<p><?php _e('Sorry, no posts matched your criteria.'); ?></p>
    	<?php endif; ?>
    
    	<?php posts_nav_link(' — ', __('&laquo; Older Posts'), __('Newer Posts &raquo;')); ?>
    
    	</div></div>
    	<div class="clear"></div>
    </div>
    
    <?php get_footer(); ?>

    problem solved. I successfully merged the sample author.php provided on the codex with a renamed index.php and kept adding and removing the Div tags until I got what I wanted.
