So I’m building an author.php page for my site and I want to able to hide a field if the author left it blank in their profile field.

My site looks like

Number of Posts: 25
Percentage of Posts on the Site: 86.21%
Website: http://www.ihopeyourearsbleed.com
Last.FM: http://www.last.fm/user/skinnymckinney
Aim: n/a

But would like to make it so that if they don’t specify one, i can hide that whole line.

Any pointers?

Try something like this:
```
<?php if (get_the_author_url()) { ?>
<a href="<?php the_author_url(); ?>"><?php the_author(); ?></a>
<?php } else { the_author(); } ?>
```
Hope that helps (even if it’s a bit late!)
