Link author name to about page

Hi there,

To clarify, so both(all) author names should link to your site’s about us page?

For reference, can you share the link to your site’s about us page? The link on your menu is currently not working.

Hi there,

add this PHP Snippet to your site:

function custom_author_link($link, $author_id, $author_nicename) {
    // set the ID of the static page
    $page_id = '87';
    if ( get_permalink($page_id) ) {
        $link = esc_url( get_permalink($page_id) );
    }
    return $link;
}

add_filter('author_link', 'custom_author_link', 10, 3);
add_filter('get_author_posts_url', 'custom_author_link', 10, 3);

here: $page_id = '87'; you will need to change 87 to the ID of the about page.
Which you can find by editing the about page, and checking the browser URL field

Adding PHP: https://docs.generatepress.com/article/adding-php/

What the snippet should do is, anywhere there is a WP generated link for the author archives, it will replace it with the URL to your about page.

Hi there,

If you are seeing differently logged in and logged out, then it’s usually a cache issue.

Make sure you clear server-level cache as well and try disable all your cache plugins.

Let me know if this helps!
