Adding co-authors

  • Hello wordpress forum

    I am new user to wordpress, and are currently trying to make the co author plugin work on my wordpress webpage. I’ve installed co-authors and a tool called code snippets.
    I’ve seen post saying that I need to locate the_author_post_link and replace the code with
    if ( function_exists( ‘coauthors_posts_links’ ) ) {
    coauthors_posts_links();
    } else {
    the_author_posts_link();
    }

    Where exactly do I find this code? Keep in mind I’m very new to this program, and have only been doing design to the webpage so far.
    I’ve made a new snippet called co-authors and written the code there, not sure that is how its supposed to be done…
    Can anyone guide me through this?

    Kind regards

    That’s going to depend on the theme you’re using. You could start by searching the files that make up your theme for ‘the_author_posts_link’ to try to help you find it.

    I am using the newspaper theme.
    I havent done any coding in wordpress, where do I search for the file?
    Sorry for the noob questions.

    Kind regards Jonas

    It’s not “a file” you’re searching for. You want to search among all the files that make up the newspaper theme.
