I bag to differ.
Author page is very clearly defined in the WP community:
http://codex.wordpress.org/Author_Templates
even google clearly knows about it.
https://www.google.com/search?q=wordpress+author+page&ie=utf-8&oe=utf-8&aq=t&rls=org.mozilla:it:official&client=firefox-a&channel=fflb
To modify the author page, you need to move a copy of geodirectory/geodirectory-templates/geodir-author.php inside your child theme.
Change this at the top of the file
from:
<?php
// get header
get_header();
to
<?php
/**
* Template Name: Author Page
*
*/
// get header
get_header();
Create the regular wordpress page you want and use the template Author Page.
At this point you will have your page using that template. If you need to modify anything, you can modify the code inside the template.
Vikas is working on Shortcodes, so very soon you should be able to use that template on any page you want, without having to do the above.
