Problem with wp_query only on author.php

Hi guys,

I’m having some trouble with a wp_query which for some reson refuses to work only on author.php. It works correctly on any other page/post.

Basically I’m requesting the latest post in a custom post type I’ve created. The query is being done in the footer.php.

I’ve tried removing all the code from author.php excerpt get_footer(); with no result unfortunately.

Here’s a pastebin of my wp_query in footer.php : https://pastebin.com/ESAkQY32
