How do I create author pages?
-
Before anyone asks, yes, I read the relevant forum threads on author templates, etc. I’m still clueless.
I have a call to
list_authorsin my sidebar. When I click on one of the authors, I get a 404 error.I’m using WordPRess 2.0. I have an
author.phptemplate file. My permalink structure is/archive/%post_id%. The author pages should be found atarchive/%author%, but they aren’t.My main page is here:
http://alesrarus.funkydung.com
One of the author pages I’d like to create:
http://alesrarus.funkydung.com/archive/author/funky-dung/
The
author.phpfile I’m trying to use:<?php get_header(); ?>
<div id="content" class="narrowcolumn">
<!-- This sets the $curauth variable -->
<?php
if(isset($_GET['author_name'])) :
$curauth = get_userdatabylogin($author_name);
else :
$curauth = get_userdata(intval($author));
endif;
?><h2>Posts by <?php echo $curauth->nickname; ?>:</h2><ul>
<!-- The Loop -->
<?php if ( have_posts() ) : while ( have_posts() ) : the_post(); ?><li>
<a>" rel="bookmark" title="Permanent Link: <?php the_title(); ?>">
<?php the_title(); ?></a>,
<?php the_time(‘d M Y’); ?> in <?php the_category(‘&’);?>
<?php endif; ?>
</div>
<?php get_sidebar(); ?>
<?php get_footer(); ?>
