switcher malfunctioning in author pages

Hi,

This is the intended behavior if the author has not written any content in the translated language. The language switcher does not link to empty pages.

Thanks for your prompt answer. I see! Would you be so kind as to point me to which parts of the code I should edit to change this? Again, much appreciated.

Hi again! It seems to me a bit weird that authors will show in the default language regardless of whether they have posts, but only show in other languages if they do. So I poked around and came up with the following edits to address this. It seems to be working fine, so I thought I’d share in case there are more people interested. Please do let me know if I got something wrong.

in frontend/frontendlinks.php, look for:

// Other archives
			elseif ( is_archive() ) {

replace with:

// Author archive
			elseif (is_author() ) {
				$url = $this->get_archive_url( $language );
			}

			// Other archives
			elseif ( is_archive() && ! is_author() ) {
