In today's video, I'm going to show you how you can create a fully-customizable Author Archive Template using a GeneratePress "Element" and GenerateBlocks dynamic blocks (including the query loop block).
It's actually super simple - but you have to know a couple of the "tricks" to get it to work correctly (IMO, it's not as intuitive as it should be).
If you have any kind of site with multiple authors, setting up this template is a great bit of polish for your website - and it's simple to do!

Thank you for your time. You've given me the solution to my problem of displaying category pages. All your videos are very useful.

Very similar to how I set up my author archives template. It took some figuring out how to accomplish it in GP/GB. I'm sure this tutorial will save people a lot of time. Thanks for posting.

@TheAdminBar 11 месяцев назад

I hope so! I've struggled with it in the past 😅

I stumbled upon this video today and truly appreciated it. The mention of a similar process for configuring search archives and 404 pages piqued my interest. I'm reaching out to express my interest in a single video or a series covering these topics, alongside a tutorial on customizing Category and Tag Archive pages. Your tutorials are fantastic!

Hey Kyle, This was such a good guide - thank you! Just what I needed, and that bonus tip about wrap into flex columns might be a game changer for me :D

@nemic30 3 месяца назад

Thank you so much for this tutorial, but I have one question, how about adding some load more button on the archive?

@TheAdminBar 3 месяца назад

I'm not sure that would be possible out of the box.

@thomasdalsgaardclausen810 9 месяцев назад

Great tutorial - but I might be a little bit in over my head. How would you go about making a custom category page, not author archives? I guess it's very similar, but would you have to make a custom template for each category (if you want some specific text/data about each category on there) or can you put that category-relevant data somewhere and pull it in dynamically like you do for the author pages?

@juts_sama 25 дней назад

Does this also work with Woocommerce product categories archive? For some reason all the products are still showing below the custom layout I built. even the sidebar is showing

Hi... Mobile visibility is okay but not visibility in the desktop, plz guide me

@auftragjetzt Месяц назад

Do you think is a good idea to rank a author page for a keyword like: „Google Ads Expert“ in SEO or it is better to do a normal site for this Keyword. Because I have the felling the author page is a bit hard to rank…

@livingoutlau 7 месяцев назад

Hey Kyle, great video. Is there a way to include social media icons in the author archives that are dynamic?

@TheAdminBar 7 месяцев назад

Yep! You gotta use ACF to create custom fields that are attached to the WordPress "user". It's pretty easy!

@livingoutlau 7 месяцев назад

Do you have a video on this? And I only see 13 posts under my author archive with no option to go to page 2 or 3, etc, even though I have over 100 articles under the author. Do you have any idea what went wrong?@@TheAdminBar

@livingoutlau 7 месяцев назад

I managed to get ACF to work! Thanks for the tip. However, I'm still only seeing 10 articles in the author archive, how do I get pagination at the button? Or infinite scroll @@TheAdminBar

@marcelogarcia7 9 месяцев назад

Hey Kyle, thanks for this great video. One thing I'm trying to find a good, and simple solution for, is how to protect the username from being exposed in the author's URL. This happens by default in wordpress. If you think this is a good topic to make a video, or if you have a good source to point to, it will be of great help. Thank you again.

@TheAdminBar 9 месяцев назад

I've done this is a PHP snippet I got from ChatGPT. I'd have to dig it out, but it would probably be quicker to just hop on there and ask for it.

@marcelogarcia7 9 месяцев назад

Nice, i will do that. Thanks.

@Jort569 9 месяцев назад

@@marcelogarcia7 I got the same problem. Do u have the link of the forum?

@davidmartinezfuentes2200 11 месяцев назад

Thanks for the video, all your videos are helping me a lot. But I wanted to ask you a question: I have seen that you use Microsoft Edge. Not if you've already talked about why you use it. But why not Chrome or Safari? You can make a video explaining why you use Edge. ---------------- (Gracias por el vídeo, todos tus vídeos me están ayudando una barbarididad. Pero te quería hacer una pregunta: He visto que usas Microsoft Edge. No si ya has hablado de porqué lo usas. Pero ¿Por qué no, Chrome o Safari? Puedes hacer un vídeo explicando porqué usas Edge. )

@TheAdminBar 11 месяцев назад

Chrome hogs SOOO many resources. Edge can still use all the chrome extensions, and seems to be much lighter. And, I'm fairly new to Apple and never even bothered with Safari (other than to browser test)

@ecomwebtips 11 месяцев назад

Can you make blog website complete include single post layout using generate block free version ?

@TheAdminBar 11 месяцев назад

I find free versions of plugins too limiting and much rather support the developers with the premium verisons that make my life easier and keep the product in development. I do think Paul at WP Tuts has some content on this though.
