To show the author, you will need to modify the template of the lideting details page.

The new version that we are currently testing to hopefully release later today or tomorrow the latest will allow you to add any element via a simple code snippet in your theme functions.php file.

We will provide you examples after we release the updated plugin.

and so on…

We will improve it greatly very soon adding avatar, bio and custom fields.

Thanks

I need an Author page that follows the description of the Author page:

“The Author page is is identical to the listings page, composed of 5 sections. It can show listings added by a user and also his favourite listings.”

So, I guess this means the addition of a author-page template?

When can we expect that to be delivered as per your feature description?

Is that working?

the author page correspond to what described. You can find the widgets controlling it in Appearance >> Widgets and GeoDirectory >> Design >> Author to control which area is active and which not, just like the listings page.

Thx

A page is very clearly defined in the WP community: http://codex.wordpress.org/Pages

If you have a different definition, you should make buyers of your product aware of that prior. For my setup to work I will need an actual page and would want you to either provide this as mentioned in your features or to provide documentation that shows how to accomplish that (I have read that you are working on documentation and think it would be great if you could release what has been completed so far – that will surely be better than the current documentation)

Author page is very clearly defined in the WP community:

http://codex.wordpress.org/Author_Templates

even google clearly knows about it.

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.

Thank you
