  • Change background color with easy to use color picker
  • Display settings allow you to control when to display author bios

This plugin also expands your profile page by adding Twitter and Facebook fields so it’s easier for readers to follow your authors.

Help a Developer Out

WP About Author, blogging and developing other blogging plugins and themes takes up a lot of my time. As much as I love doing it, development slows down when I start taking in side work to pay the bills. If you like CommenTwitter or anything else you see on JonBishop.com, please feel free to donate the amount of your choice to help keep me running.

    I use WPML plugin to translate my website between English and Turkish. String Translation finds the entered English author bio text, and offers me the possibility to translate and save it, which I do. But on my Turkish posts, the author bio is still in English. What could be causing this? Thank you !!

    I’d like rounded corners too. That’d be great, we’re using them quite a bit on our print magazines.

    Thanks,

    Bryan

    Great work!

    I’d like to request rounded corners. I would also like to be able to choose the color of the borders as well.

    Keep it up! You’re doing a great job!
