Hey there! My site is https://mommymakerteacher.com/
I want my author display to link to my about page instead of the author archives. I tried adding the code from the other related threads and it didn’t work.
-
Nevermind, I got it to work… But it isn’t displaying my author image icon despite adding the code.

Hi there,
the easiest solution would be using a block element – post meta template, you can simply set the author name to the about page url.

I am following the directions in the video, but the author name isn’t linking…

Hi there,
I see. Can you share admin login credentials through the Private Information field? I’ll check why it isn’t working.
-
Sure, for WordPress right?
-
Fernando
Yes, thank you!
That’s odd. Can you try GB’s dynamic options instead? Example: https://share.zight.com/Z4upKwZ9
Let us know how it goes.
-
Nope, did not work.

Can I try to recreate it myself to test? I’ll keep you styling settings.

It seems to be working now upon recreating it from scratch. It must have been a faulty save. Sometimes, when saving and there’s some sort of communication interruption to the server(example: internet loss), the save to the database may be corrupted. It can happen to any Block, even non-GB Blocks.

Hey, this re-directs to the author archives. Not the about page… I was trying to use Author Meta and website from the author page set to /about.

Hi there,
can you link me to a page where i can see the author links you need redirecting ?

I want the post author name to return the website value in the post author meta. And/Or a work-around to redirect from the author archives to the about page.

1. You can set the healdine’s link source to
author meta
>user_url
, instead ofauthor archive
.2. Go to dashboard > users, and add the about page link to the author’s website field. Here’s an example:

Do I type user_url in the field then? Instead of website? I thought it had to match what was displayed on the user profile. “Website” didn’t work yesterday.
