Hi,
I was wondering if there is a way to edit the authors pages. I would like to list their articles, or at least the category link for their articles.
]]>I’m getting shocked lately seeing how many plugins have been abandoned by their own developers. As this one, 2 years have gone.
I do understand that this is amateur work, but one check up once eery 6 months don’t costm much.
However, i hopes the Author will take it bak to life.
]]>Hello,
I tried to use the shortcode [wp_about_author] but it doesn’t display anything. Also the image of my profile is not displayed while it is with Starbox.
]]>A setup I’ve just done with this plugin looks v nice on desktop, but social icons look bad on mobile!

Can someone help?
]]>Linkedin button comes up not found. I have many contributors to my site
if I edit the plugin for my profile I will lose the ability to have all authors supported with a link to linkedin
also everyone is using the in/ not pub/ format mine is

have there been any updates since the last support FAQ
this is critical to our success with the blog
]]>Hey,
First of all, great plugin! However I can’t use it as it is at the moment. Due to my theme, the author box will be added to everything, i.e. woocommerce products (3 boxes in one product page) and others.
Would it be possible you put a setting where the box is diasabled by default and another option on the article or page editors to enable it for separately? In that way the plugin wouldn’t spam the box everywhere and you could use it only where you really want to use it.
Cheers
]]>Hi,
How are you?
I am using the WP Author WP plugin and for some reason when my website is in responsive mode all of the text is left aligned and does not wrap around the image of the Author like it use to.
How do I fix this?
Kindest regards,
Scott
]]>Good day,
I try to create a differnt social profile with a code like this one:
<?php
function my_wp_about_author_social($social){
$social[‘my_service_key’] = array(
‘link’=>’https://www.mysocial.com/%%usersocia%%’,
‘title’=>’Social’,
‘icon’=>’https://www.mysitepath.com/icon.png’
);
return ‘<div class=”wp-about-author-containter-%%bordertype%%” style=”background-color:%%borderbg%%;”><div class=”wp-about-author-pic”>%%authorpic%%</div><div class=”wp-about-author-text”>%%content%%</div></div>’;
}
add_filter(‘wp_about_author_get_socials’, ‘my_wp_about_author_social’);
?>
I put it into the functions.php of theme, but I don’t work. Why?
]]>Hi I would like to hide the entire box when there is no author description. How do I do this? I see the question asked a year ago but no answer. is it possible now?
]]>I want to be able to remove the Author box from WooCommerce product posts, how can I do this without removing it from all posts?
TIA
]]>The variable name $fields is used as an argument to wp_parse_args in wp_about_author_get_options without previous initialization (and, as far as I can see, without purpose, as the defaults are set differently).
How do I add more social media icons like Instagram?
How can we delete the text: “More Posts – Website” in the author box?
How can we make the thick top border line a different colour?
Thx!
]]>Hi
from the author’s name link, I’d like the redirect to go to the author’s profile page on our web site, not the list of the author’s blog entries
the code in the plugin is:
$wp_about_author_content .= "<h3><a href='" . $wp_about_author_author['posts_url']. "' title='". $wp_about_author_author['name'] ."'>". apply_filters( 'wp_about_author_name', $wp_about_author_author['name'] ) ."</a></h3>";
and the variable is:
$wp_about_author_author[‘posts_url’] = get_author_posts_url(get_the_author_meta(‘ID’));
does anyone know how to modify this to send the link?
]]>The Google + link is not correctly rendering the URL from an author’s profile information.
This line is returning no data.
$socials['googleplus'] = array('title'=>'Google Plus', 'link'=>'https://plus.google.com/%%username%%', 'icon'=> WPAUTHORURL_URL .'/images/googleplus.png');Modifying to …
$socials['gplus'] = array('title'=>'Google Plus', 'link'=>'https://plus.google.com/%%username%%', 'icon'=> WPAUTHORURL_URL .'/images/googleplus.png');correctly grabs the Google Plus URL.
]]>if(defined( 'WPSEO_VERSION')){
$socials['googleplus'] = array('title'=>'Google Plus', 'link'=>'%%username%%', 'icon'=> WPAUTHORURL_URL .'images/googleplus.png');
} else {
$socials['googleplus'] = array('title'=>'Google Plus', 'link'=>'https://plus.google.com/%%username%%', 'icon'=> WPAUTHORURL_URL .'images/googleplus.png');
}This is producing:
<a class="wpa-social-icons" href="105179146464490365399?rel=author'><img src='/wp-content/plugins/wp-about-author/images/googleplus.png" alt="Google Plus"></a>
Obviously that’s not right. Is there a fix?
]]>I have selected the “Display On Front Page” option on settings.
But it’s not showing up in my index page. I see the css on the source code, but no the div and so on.
Can you help me ?
]]>Hi,
I would like to hide the WP ABOUT AUTHOR option for admin users or a specific user. Is there any option to do this??
Thank you!
]]>Feature suggestions;
Can we have full URL control for the links?
I want the Flickr link to my photostream, not the profile page
Also, I want to add additional social links. Can I add my own icons? 500px, deviantart, many others.
All this could be done in a configuration section and people could share configurations separate from the plugin (hook/filter?)
]]>Is there an easy way to make social links open in a new window? IMO this should be the default.
]]>Hi,
Thanks for this awesome plugin.
I want to add “nofollow” to the links of Author’s name.
Can you please identify the file name and path which I should change for this?
Thanks for your support.
Regards
]]>Hi there,
My social icons, unlike others’, are listed vertically rather than horizontally.
How do I fix this? https://screencast.com/t/EehfJYBsQDAA
Thanks for any help you can offer. Otherwise a great plugin!

]]>If you look at the bottom of https://www.wiredseo.com/increasing-organic-traffic-82-in-one-day-with-only-on-page-seo/, you’ll see that the white circle background does not fit with the image, and no matter what size I make the image, it never fits.
Any ideas?
]]>Any way to disable this by post or by author? Certain maintenance style posts I would like to not show this information but I do not see a quick way to do this.
]]>The bio text is no longer formatting like it was. It’s all together now without the breaks. Is there a way to fix that?
]]>Is it possible to add some custom authors boxes in a page without posts?
]]>Hi, I’m building a site for a client. Working on adding the about author plugin on this page: https://devsite.ttcinnovations.com/garbage-in-garbage-out/
For some reason the Gravatar and the About Author bio are not centered. How can I fix this?
Thanks!
]]>After upgrading to 1.4 the text overlaps the avatar.
This is because of the new code to handle custom sized avatars uses the “wp_author_avatar_size” setting without checking to make sure it’s been set.
What is happening is that on an existing install, the avatar size is not set and so it evaluates to 0 until you go in to the settings page and save the settings.
]]>After upgrading to 1.4, the layout of the about author box is broken: text overlaps the avatar image — see example screenshot below:
I need to change the background colour of the About Author module. When I go to the settings page the current hex ref flashes up super-quickly, then disappears after which the option to select a different colour doesn’t work. Any ideas how I can fix this or at least work around it?
Thanks
Hi,
Is there a way to add the social links to the author.php page?
Thanks
