    Hi,
    I recently followed the instructions (method 3) on https://www.wpbeginner.com/wp-tutorials/how-to-add-an-author-info-box-in-wordpress-posts/ so that my bio would appear on each blog post. It worked, but I’ve found that a bio (either mine or admin) has appeared on every portfolio item, under the find out more bar, near the bottom. Can I get rid of the bio on each portfolio item please, as I only want it underneath each blog post.

    Thanks!

    Hey kenwcmg,

    You might want to use the code below to make sure it only works for posts:

    
if (is_singular('post')) {

    //your code here...

}

    If you need further assistance please let us know.
    Best regards,

    Hi Victoria,
    Many thanks for the reply. So that I don’t mess things up, could you let me know where I should put that code please? I currently have the following in my quick SCC:
    .
    author_bio_section{
    background: none repeat scroll 0 0 #F5F5F5;
    padding: 15px;
    border: 1px solid #ccc;
    }

    .author_name{
    font-size:16px;
    font-weight: bold;
    }

    .author_details img {
    border: 1px solid #D8D8D8;
    border-radius: 50%;
    float: left;
    margin: 0 10px 10px 0;
    }

    Thanks!

    Hi kenwcmg,

    You need to insert it in functions.php which can be found in Method 3: Adding Author Info Box Using Code in the link you gave.
    I believe you have this code:

    if ( is_single() && isset( $post->post_author ) ) {

    try to replace it with:

    if ( is_singular('post') && isset( $post->post_author ) ) {

    and that should do it.

    Best regards,
    Nikko

    Hi, thanks, sorry, I clearly didn’t read it quite carefully enough! Really appreciate your help!
