Hi, sorry for the late response. I see it correctly, did you manage to solve it? I actually don’t think it was from Simple Author Box as the plugin load all its assets from the same URL of the website.

Hi, I have updated the Freemius SDK which fixes the issue.

The preview is from the Open Graph Description but Simple Author Box doesn’t set its value, it’s from another plugin, probably Yoast.

Hi, I checked this post https://www.it-freelancer-magazin.de/index.php/2019/11/05/5-einfache-finanztipps-fuer-erfolgreiche-it-freelancer/ but the preview in Facebook shows:

“Man liest, IT-Freelancer erzielen hohe Stundens?tze. Die Frage, wie man seine Freiberuflichkeit finanziert, stellt sich für die IT-Branche also eher nicht. Oder etwa doch? Viele Projekte dauern Wochen. Wochen, in denen man mit seiner Arbeit in Vorleistung gehen muss. Wenn dann der Kunde sein Zahlu…”

Also be sure to always check the preview using the Facebook debugger: https://developers.facebook.com/tools/debug/sharing/?q=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.it-freelancer-magazin.de%2Findex.php%2F2019%2F11%2F05%2F5-einfache-finanztipps-fuer-erfolgreiche-it-freelancer%2F

Good to know, thanks!

Hi, I think that error is from something else, maybe the theme.

Simple Author Box uses the correct schema, also with the free version, here is an example of its markup:

<div class="saboxplugin-wrap" itemtype="https://schema.org/Person" itemscope itemprop="author">
    <div class="saboxplugin-gravatar"><img src="[..]" alt="Diego" itemprop="image"></div>
    <div class="saboxplugin-authorname">
      <a href="[...]" class="vcard author" rel="author" itemprop="url">
      	<span class="fn" itemprop="name">Diego</span>
      </a>
  	</div>
    <div class="saboxplugin-desc">
        <div itemprop="description">
            <div class="saboxplugin-desc">
                <div>Sed non elit aliquam, tempor nisl vitae, euismod quam.</div>
            </div>
      </div>
  </div>
</div>

Hi, I’m sorry for the very late response ??

Yes, sorting is a feature included into the Premium version only.

Thanks. Do I need to do anything to specify where the code is placed?

It can be placed anywhere in your functions.php just be sure not inside another function.

Also, will this work for replacing line 26 with this code

I’m not sure I understand what you mean. You don’t need to edit the plugin.

Hi, I checked the markup and all Simple Author Box tags are correctly placed. It must be something else.

Hi,

sorry for the late response. You can use the sabox_author_html filter inside the functions.php of your theme, for example:

function custom_author_html()
{
	return "<span>Author of this post:</span>";
}

add_filter('sabox_author_html', 'custom_author_html');

Added to the current development branch ??

Hi,

this is a nice idea. I didn’t know ResearchGate and had a look at it but I can’t see a link to a user page. Can you share a link so I can see how it should be made?

Cheers,
Diego

Hi Grant,

that’s a feature of the Premium version.

Cheers,
Diego

Hi Francesco,

yes that works, just put the shortcode in the the description (or caption) field of your image.

Cheers,
Diego

(that thread is about Twenty Seventeen theme, you should adapt it for your theme)
