About Page at the bottom of each article

some themes, such as twenty ten, are showing the author description below each single post:
for twenty ten, the code is in loop-single.php and starts with:
<?php if ( get_the_author_meta( 'description' ) ) : // If a user has filled out their description, show a bio on their entries ?>
and ends with <?php endif; ?> about 15 lines further down.

you theme might be different

Thanks alchymyth, right I’m using the twenty ten theme. You mean to say by putting a // before <?php if ( get_the_author_meta( 'description' ) ) : // If a user has filled out their description, show a bio on their entries ?> in loop-single.php file this will be turned off?

nope – you will just get an error message, because you are commenting the start of an if statement, but leave the end of it open.

this might work:

<?php /* if ( get_the_author_meta(............
…..
<?php endif; */ ?>

Thanks, that worked!
