Author Bio

This plug-in will add the post authors biographical information (from their wordpress profile) to the bottom of the post (although only on the single page view of the post, not the main page).

The label that’s displayed infront of the users first name is configurable on the plug-ins settings page.

The plug-in can be downloaded from the wordpress plug-in repoistory.

    How come you don’t have it on your blog, David? I only ask cause i want to know how it looks. I went to the Wordpress download page and there is no screenshot there either.

    Let me know. Thx!

    I really do … just not this blog. I’m the only author on this blog, so there’s no real use for it. If you go to http://imho.midrange.com, you’ll see the plug-in in action.

    Hi David :-)

    Great plugin! How did you get that cool box to appear around the author bio?

    Thanks!

    It’s just a single cell table. The blog’s normal styles handle the appearance.

    Sorry — new to all of this… where exactly would I place this cell table?

    and can hyperlinks to an authors other sites be included?

    Thanks and thrive…

    I might be able to include the authors gravitar … would that be sufficient?

    You don’t do anything with it … it’s just there. You can alter the style of it if you want. Take a look at the generated HTML to see the classes used.

    and can hyperlinks
    to an authors other sites be included?

    I could probably add a link to the authors website if it’s set.

    I’ll try to get all the suggestions in the next version… although I don’t know when I’ll have a chance to get to it.

    Is there a way to make this as an option? There are some posts that I don’t want it to appear on.

    Thanks.

    Nancy, would being able to specify which categories the bio shows up in or doesn’t show up in sufficient? I’m working on just such a modification.

  • By Nancy, 3 August 2009 @ 1:27 pm

    That would work well!

    David,

    I installed the author bio plug-in. When I go to my website, I dont see the author section. What am I doing wrong?

    I looked at your blog and it appears to be working fine.
