Support for multi author cards?

    Hey there,
    Awesome theme. Wondering if it supports displaying more than 1 author card in conjunction with co-author plus?

    For example, say this link here was co authored (https://independentpublisher.me/2016/testing-webmentions/). At the bottom, is it possible to have a picture of the author, the description, the date etc (just like what you see now) and then below this, the same layout but with details of the second author?

    Cheers,
    Sean

    @xmanx1 That’s not built into the theme, no, however the function that produces the author card (independent_publisher_posted_author_bottom_card(); see inc/template-tags.php#L520-L569) can be overwritten in a Child Theme so that it outputs two author cards instead of one when more than one author exists (WordPress itself only supports one author per post, so you’ll need to integrate this with whatever you’re using to specify multiple authors).

    Ah, neat. Thanks. (ps, that code highlighting link is brilliant).

    I put in a temp work around using co author plus and author spotlight and then some hardcode just to see if it would work. It does but I lose other features like the neat social media widgets.

    Child theme sounds like the way to go. Thanks a bunch.

    @xmanx1 Glad I could help! ?? I opened a new GitHub issue to look into adding support for Co-Authors Plus to the theme: https://github.com/raamdev/independent-publisher/issues/234
