Removing non-custom author box?

  • Hi. First off, thanks for a great plugin, it does exactly what I need.

    However, when I add a custom author and include them into a post using the shortcode you provided ([custom_author=username]) it displays a box for that custom author, but right under it there is also a box displayed for the non-custom (or original) author displayed.

    Is there a way to remove that?

    Thanks!

    Hi codingcoders,

    For the case you mentioned, you should use the custom fields option instead of the shortcode.

    Search for “Specify a custom profile to display which has a different username from the post’s author.” in https://littlehandytips.com/plugins/custom-about-author/ to find more information.

    Basically you add a custom field name “post-author” with the value of the username of the custom author you like to use.

    Hope this helps.
