 * Correct me if I am wrong, but would not the most common place for an author box
   to be in the widget area?
    If so, it would be an absolute awesome feature to 
   have a **widget** and a **shortcode**, as opposed to just a **php code** for 
   easier inserting.
 * It’s a great plugin, and I cant use it.
