Add author meta to top of blog

Hi Matt,

You would need to use a child theme to achieve it.
If you aren’t using a child theme yet, you can get it here: https://kriesi.at/documentation/enfold/child-theme/

Once you have installed the child theme, create includes folder inside it, then copy loop-index.php from Enfold (parent theme) and paste it inside includes.
Open loop-index.php and find this code (line 488-509):

/**
 * Allow to change theme options setting for certain posts
 *
 * @since 4.8.8
 * @param boolean $show_author_meta
 * @param string $context
 * @return boolean
 */
if( true === apply_filters( 'avf_show_author_meta', 'blog-meta-author' == avia_get_option( 'blog-meta-author' ), 'loop-index' ) )
{
    $meta_author  = '<span class="blog-author minor-meta">' . __( 'by', 'avia_framework' ) . ' ';
    $meta_author .=		'<span class="entry-author-link" ' . avia_markup_helper( array( 'context' => 'author_name', 'echo' => false ) ) . '>';
    $meta_author .=			'<span class="author">';
    $meta_author .=				'<span class="fn">';
    $meta_author .=					get_the_author_posts_link();
    $meta_author .=				'</span>';
    $meta_author .=			'</span>';
    $meta_author .=		'</span>';
    $meta_author .= '</span>';

    $meta_info['author'] = $meta_author;
}

Cut the code and paste it on line 378 (put the code below this code):

$close_header = '';

Hope it helps.

Best regards,
Nikko

Hi Matt,

Can you give us temporary admin access to it?
Just post the credentials in private content.

Hi Matt,

Thanks for providing the admin access.
I made a mistake on the code I gave, this part:

$meta_info['author'] = $meta_author;

should be:

echo $meta_author;

I have made the changes on your site.
Please review your site.

Best regards,
