Thanks for your response

Can you not use Wp Clone to do this then? Would you be able to point me towards any information that might tell me how to do this at all? I know how to drop tables in sql, btu as for anything else, I am stumped.

Thanks, thats much appreciated!

would it be something to do with this, at the end of the author.php?:

<?php else : ?>
<?php get_template_part( ‘content’, ‘none’ ); ?>
<?php endif; ?>

Yeah, I suppose you’re right on that one.
I’m using 2012, and hosting locally.

I want the author name, description, and any links they enter in the user profile section of the admin panel to show up on an author archive page, when the author’s name is clicked on.

For an author without posts, It currently comes up with ‘nothing found…’ and a search bar to find posts.

I suppose I’m trying to look for a way to bypass lack of posts

Thanks.

the plugin i tried was this one: show authors without posts

That worked a treat thanks. It wasn’t completely straightforward though.

For others, if you are backing up your site locally, WP clone creates a backup zip file in your uploads directory. On my live WordPress installation, the ‘restore from URL’ function in WP Clone didn’t work with the local zip file. I had to upload it via FTP to my uploads folder on the live site, then restore from that url for it to work.

edit*- ‘sure this is possible’- I previouslt had another live developed wordpress website installed on the one database as well

forgot to post the website

I sorted it with this piece of code, which can probably be abbreviated somehow:

}
#access .page-item-18 a:hover {color:#ffffff}
#access .page-item-22 a:hover {color:#4d4d4d}
}
#access ul li:hover > ul {
display: block;
}
#access .current_page_item > a,
#access .current_page_ancestor > a {
font-weight: bold;
color: #ff0033;
}
#access .current_page_item.page-item-18 > a,
#access .current_page_ancestor > a {
font-weight: bold;
color: #ffffff;
}
#access .current_page_item.page-item-22 > a,
#access .current_page_ancestor > a {
font-weight: bold;
color: #4d4d4d;
}

the home section would be as it is currently, Id like to do the same with white and grey for work and contact respectively. Here is my menu code, which probably has a lot of unnecessary stuff. Thanks for your help.
