    Good evening,

    My client wants to display the author bio on the bottom of all the individual blog posts. Right now, it has name and date at top, but we want to add author bio on the bottom. Is that possible?

    Site is http://trustytails.staging.wpengine.com/pet-learning-center/blog (hosted on WPengine)

    Thanks!

    Hey jgraddy,

    Thank you for using Enfold.

    You can edit single.php, find this code:

      get_template_part( 'includes/loop', 'index' );

    Add this below:

    if(is_single()) get_template_part( 'includes/loop', 'about-author' );

    Best regards,

    Thanks so much, awesome support as always!
    Ok, I have another question about the blogs. If the advanced editor (Avia builder) is used to create the blog, it does not show author at the bottom nor does it show the date or author at the top. You can see what I mean on http://trustytails.staging.wpengine.com/dog-grooming/hoboken-dog-groomer/ (hosted on WPengine)

    If I don’t use the advanced editor (Avia builder), it shows all that stuff like on http://trustytails.staging.wpengine.com/hiring-a-pet-sitter/professional-pet-sitter/

    Thoughts? Just asking because I know my client will ask. :)

    Hi jgraddy,

    You have to add those things manually when you are making posts via Advanced Layout Builder.

    If you need further assistance please let us know.
    Best regards,

    Hello Support,
    I successfully added the authors bio at the end of the post with the snippet above. Works great.
    The only thing that bothers me:
    – On the authors page the text in the right side is aligned correctly: https://www.videospielgeschichten.de/author/yannic-hertel/
    – On the blog post (bottom) it’s not. The texts floats around the avatar: https://www.videospielgeschichten.de/mea-culpa-kingdom-come-deliverance/
    How can I correct this?
    Kind regards
    Andre

    Hi Andre,

    Please try the following in Quick CSS under Enfold->General Styling:

    @media only screen and (min-width: 768px) {
.single .author_description_text p {
    margin-left: 130px;
}
}

    Best regards,
    Rikard

    Thanks for your support Rikard, now it’s perfect!

    I added a little extra space on the right side (50 Pixel), so that the text is not running against the border. Now both views (Author page und post) are equal and looking great.

    https://www.videospielgeschichten.de/mea-culpa-kingdom-come-deliverance/

    @media only screen and (min-width: 768px) {
.single .author_description_text p {
    margin-left: 130px;
    margin-right: 50px;
}
}

    Would it be possible to link the authors name to the authors page?

    Hi,

    You would need to edit the element to make it link to the author page.
    Unfortunately, there is not an easier way at all.

    Hi Basilis,

    How can I do this?
    Kind regards

    Hi,

    Replace the whole includes > loop-about-author.php file with this code.

    // https://pastebin.com/FVjw0ZVZ

    We just added this line inside the file.

    $author_link = get_author_posts_url($post->post_author);
	$link = is_single() ? "<a href='{$author_link}' class='post-author-format-type'>{$heading}</a>" : $heading;

    Best regards,
    Ismael

    Hi Ismael,
    it’s working!
    Thank you so much.
    This should maybe be the standard in Enfold as many people would have a shortcut to the authors page.

    Hi,

    Yeah, I agree. It looks good. However, I’m not sure if this is going to be included by default.

    Glad we could help! We’ll close this thread now. :)

    Best regards,
    Ismael
