    Hi there,

    im trying to display the authors page, but as long as the authors post types are custom post types, nothing is displayed.

    Do you have any ideas?

    Thank you!

    Hey fawnulm!

    How did you create the post types? Are you sure you have set the correct values for, “has_archive”, “publicly_queryable”, and “exclude_from_search”? http://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/register_post_type

    Best regards,

    Hi Elliott,

    thanks for your reply. And yes, I did deactivate exlude from search, I activated the archive and also publiclyy queryable as you can see here : http://pl.vc/4z3xy . I created the custom post types with CPT UI. I already uninstalled and reinstalled it, without effort.

    Regards,

    Hi!

    Try adding this to the bottom of your functions.php file.

    add_action( 'pre_get_posts', 'enfold_customization_author_archives' );
function enfold_customization_author_archives( $query ) {
    if ( $query -> is_author ) { $query -> set( 'post_type', 'any' ); }
    remove_action( 'pre_get_posts', 'enfold_customization_author_archives' ); 
}

    Cheers!

    Hi Elliot,

    thanks a lot, this did it :-)

    In WordPress, I added some Fake Authors, Like “Author a & Author b” to have the possibility to set multiple persons as an author of a post.

    So, when calling the author site, of course those posts of multiple authors do not appear. But I want to list those posts also.

    Ist there something like 

    add_action( 'pre_get_posts', 'enfold_customization_author_archives' );
function enfold_customization_author_archives( $query ) {
    <strong>if ( $query -> is_author  && ANOTHER_AUTHOR ) { $query -> set( 'post_type', 'any' ); }</strong>
    remove_action( 'pre_get_posts', 'enfold_customization_author_archives' ); 
}

    Hey!

    So you created a new author named “Author & Author” to kind of display a post by two authors? If you want to check for a certain author then you could try using this is_author function, http://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/is_author.

    Cheers!
