Hi,

Open includes > loop-index.php and find this code.

/*
						echo '<span class="blog-author minor-meta">'.__('by ','avia_framework');
						the_author_posts_link();
						echo '</span><span class="text-sep author-sep">/</span>';

						echo '<span class="blog-permalink minor-meta">';
						echo "<a href='".get_permalink()."'>".__('#permalink','avia_framework')."</a>";
						echo '</span>';
						*/

Replace it with this.

echo '<span class="blog-author minor-meta">'.__('written by ','avia_framework');
						the_author_posts_link();
						echo '</span><span class="text-sep author-sep">/</span>';

Regards,
Ismael

Hi,

What you'll want to do is move the code above this line:
```
// echo the post content
echo $content;
```

the author info now runs together with the content. i need a break. the author info needs to be between the title and content. right now there is a title, author below title, but the content starts next to the author instead of the line breaking and content starting below author.

please help.

Hi klingerrr1,

You can add two break tags at the end of the code Ismael gave you. Like this:

echo '<span class="blog-author minor-meta">'.__('written by ','avia_framework');
the_author_posts_link();
echo '</span><span class="text-sep author-sep">/</span><br /><br />';
