I’m not seeing it … the author-bio plug-in doesn’t appear to be currently active.

My author-bio plug-in will add the bio for whoever is listed as the author of the post.

The style classes you’ll want to create are:

author_bio – top level class
author_bio_title – wraps the author title
author_bio_gravatar – wraps the gravatar

Here’s a simple example of how I styled the author bio box on one of my sites:

.author_bio {border-style:groove}
.author_bio_gravatar {float:left; margin: 10px 10px 10px 10px;}:

i need to sstyle the bio box, but am having trouble with editing the author bio class.
where is that located?

It doesn’t exist out of the box … you can create it any way you want. I recommend adding it to the style.css file in a child theme.

The exclude category option also doesn’t appear to be working.

You can style the text by altering the author_bio class.

If you are using version 0.07 of the plug-in, just edit the Author Bio label text in the settings.

If you’re not running version 0.07, upgrade and you’ll be able to edit the label.

I’m going to change the default for that field to not include the colon, as it doesn’t make much sense.

I just grabbed all the XML Perl modules that they list …

Perl modules don’t really apply here … as wordpress runs in PHP.

Tom:

Do you know what version of libxml2 you’re system is using?

david

Are you running selfhosted blogs?

Yes.

libxml2 was recently updated in Fedora 9 … although I also upgraded to 2.6.2 around the same time.

Yeah, I’m seeing it too. Seems to have manifested after upgrading to 2.6.2. Anything that uses the XML-RPC api is effected (including iPhone WordPress app).

FWIW: I just submitted ticket 7771 (https://trac.www.ads-software.com/ticket/7771) to trac … dunno if it’s a dupe, but I’m sure they’ll tell me if it is.

If you haven’t already, grab version 0.9.

If you’re talking about invoking the friend list from the main menu … I’ve got a simple fix for that:

In the ff_add_menu function, add a slash ‘/’ in front of wp-content:

function ff_add_menu() {
                add_menu_page('Friend Finder', 'Friends', 9, $siteurl.'/wp-content/plugins/friendfinder/friendslist.php');
        }

        add_action('admin_menu', 'ff_add_menu');
