• Hi, I am quite new at wordpress and I have a question about some permalinks appear on my site that I did not create myself.

    my blog; wenabroad.com

    if you click on the author at one of my articles, you get redirected to the author page, but I would like to change the permalink that is created for this page. Now it includes my email adres, which is not supposed to. I get this link https://wenabroad.com/author/wendytimmermansicloud-com/

    Is there an option to manage all permalinks that are created on the site? I also found some other weird ones of pages I did not create.

    Also the information I put in my author profile is not showing on the page itself, only the articles I wrote.

    Thx for some help!

  • Author page permalink is generated automatically based on your username. To edit those permalinks you’ll need a plugin like this one:

    Need to be more specific, so I can help. WordPress generates a lot of different default pages – author pages, categories, tags, date-based archive pages, etc. Plus, themes and plugins can generate pages and permalinks for those pages too.

    Also the information I put in my author profile is not showing on the page itself, only the articles I wrote.

    This is not WordPress, this is a theme issue. Theme must be built to include author info on author’s page. If it’s not, then it won’t show up. If you bought a premium theme, you can try asking developer or looking at documentation to see if this feature is available and you simply need to enable it in the theme settings.

    Otherwise, this will require custom development to add author info to author page.

    Hope that helps.

    Thanks a lot Viktor, I came upon some weird permalink on my website, but I cannot seem to find it anymore, I used a tool to collect them, but I don’t remember the name of it.

    For the rest your advice is very helpful.

    Thx!
