ok thaks!

by the way my theme is Pinnacle Free by Kendance Themes.

Sorry I could not include the screenshot because there is no such option in this forum! but anyway, I have written in detail what the problem is, and which are the options I have enabled or disabled.

I have red soooo many forums about this topic and is still not clear what the solution is. ??

Seems to be a matter of coding in the theme editor but I am not sure. Any suggestion?

Hi,

I have the same problem. Using the Test Tool in Webmaster, it gives me a warning of missing:author.

According to article in https://www.wpcub.com/fix-missing-required-field-entry-titleupdatehcard-error-in-wordpress/ , it seems that the solution is to do this:

– Locate the single.php file on the Theme editor
– Locate the following code: <span class=”theauthor”><?php the_author(); ?></span>
– Substitute this code with this: <span class=”vcard author”>
<span class=”fn”><?php the_author(); ?></span>
</span>

The problem is that in my single_php there is no such thing. Only the following:
…………………………………..
<?php get_header(); ?>
<?php get_template_part(‘templates/content’, ‘single’); ?>
<?php get_sidebar(); ?>
</div><!– /.row–>
</div><!– /.content –>
</div><!– /.wrap –>
<?php get_footer(); ?>
……………………………………..

In my entry-meta-author.php, there is this:
……………………………………..
<div class=”entry-meta-author”>
<?php echo get_avatar( get_the_author_meta(‘ID’), 64 ); ?>
</div>
……………………………………..

Finally, in the authorbox.php (lib/authorbox.php), with regards to author and vcard I get this:
……………………………………….
<div class=”tab-content postclass”>
<div class=”tab-pane clearfix active” id=”about”>
<div class=”author-profile vcard”>
<?php echo get_avatar( get_the_author_meta(‘ID’), 80 ); ?>
<div class=”author-follow”><span class=”followtext”><?php _e(‘Follow’, ‘pinnacle’); ?> <?php the_author_meta( ‘display_name’ ); ?>:</span>
………………………………………..

Anyone has an idea of where should the changes in the editor be done? I don’t want to mess up and I am not a developer/IT.

Hi,
I have the exact same problem. I am using Pinnacle free.
I have now enabled the option “Show author name with posts?” in “blog options”. I hope this will fix the problem.
With regards to Authors, I was wondering if I should enable or disable the option “Exclude user from Author-sitemap” in the User option in the WordPress Dashboard. Does this have any impact on the “Missing: Author” message on Webmaster? Does this create any conflict with the Pinnacle theme option “Show author name with posts?”
Thanks,

Hi,

I have this problem: When users try to sign up for the newsletter, while typing their name / email in the fields of the form, no text is shown. It is as if the text field color would be set to white, but in fact it is set to black, so users should see what they are typing in straight away. The site is https://www.femalesolotravel.com. Can anyone help?

Thanks,
Fla
