Extra from Elegant themes implementation

i just spent 3 hours getting this to work in Divi by Elegant Themes. Should work for Extra as well.

Create a child theme

put this in the child theme’s root level functions.php

if ( ! function_exists( 'et_pb_get_the_author_posts_link' ) ) :
function et_pb_get_the_author_posts_link(){
	global $authordata, $post;

	// Fallback for preview
	if ( empty( $authordata ) && isset( $post->post_author ) ) {
		$authordata = get_userdata( $post->post_author );
	}

	// If $authordata is empty, don't continue
	if ( empty( $authordata ) ) {
		return;
	}

	if ( function_exists( 'coauthors_posts_links' ) ) {
    	$link = sprintf(
			coauthors( null, null, null, null, false )
		);
	} else {
		$link = sprintf(
			'<a href="%1$s" title="%2$s" rel="author">%3$s</a>',
			esc_url( get_author_posts_url( $authordata->ID, $authordata->user_nicename ) ),
			esc_attr( sprintf( __( 'Posts by %s', 'et_builder' ), get_the_author() ) ),
			get_the_author()
		);
		}
	return apply_filters( 'the_author_posts_link', $link );
}
endif;
