I've been trying to get the El-Aleph plug in to work correctly on my site. The plug-in activates with no problem but when I try to use the following tag:
<?php aleph_the_author_profile_link(); ?>
no link is displayed. Also, when I try to view the author list, I get a blank page. This is a page with my head and foot but no content. I don't get any error messages but instead nothing is displayed.
I do have a static front page but in my Wordpress settings I do have a posts page set.
Please adivse. Thanks!

Perhaps your server uses PHP4 ? Aleph requires PHP5.
I was thinking the same thing. I was actually hoping that was it because it would be an easy fix. However, our server is running PHP 5. Thanks though.

Uhmm, maybe it's a conflict with another plugin. How is your WordPress installation configured ? Do you have a custom wp-content folded?
I'm still on Wordpress 2.6. I have customized the Kubrick theme and have several plug-ins installed including:
Advanced Category Excluder
AJAXed Wordpress
Akismet
cforms
Cimy User Extra Fields
CMS-like Admin Menu
Contentboxes
El Aleph
El Aleph -- User Photo Support
Gravatar
Hidepost
Lighter Menus
Lock Out
My Page Order
NextGEN FlashViewer
NextGEN Gallery
pageMash
Profiler
Register Plus
Role Manager
Simple:Press Forum
TinyMCE Advanced
User Photo
WordPress Exploit Scanner
Wordpress Navigation List Plugin NAVT
Wordpress Thread Comment
WP-dTree
WP Ajax Edit Comments
WP Grins
WP Security Scan
I apologize for the very long list of plug ins but my hope is that one of them is known to interfere with el aleph and hopefully I can just eliminate it.
I very much appreciate your attempt to help me troubleshoot this problem. I would love to be able to get this plug-in functional.

As far as i know, all these plugins are compatible (i've never heard any problems), but i haven't tested all of them.
I think maybe these plugins could create some conflicts:
AJAXed WordPress
Hide Post
But i'm not really sure.
I tried disabling those plug ins just to see what happened. The problem persisted.
Could it have anything to do with not using the default wordpress table prefix? I changed that as a security measure when initially setting up wordpress.
One more thought. My Wordpress installation is not in my root directory. Its located at http://www.mydomain.com/site/
Could that be it?

Hi,
I don't think that's the problem, but the truth is i don't know what's wrong. It seems to be a very specific problem. :(
Maybe if you give me your url i could check some things ...
/bump
I have exactly the same problem...

Kinda late but I just ran into the same problem
open up aleph-user-tags.php
and change the function on line 177 to read
function aleph_the_user_profile_link($caption = '', $authordata = '') {
if($authordata == '') global $user;
else $user = $authordata;
$profile_url = aleph_get_user_profile_url($user);
if ($profile_url !== false) {
if (empty($caption))
$caption = $user->display_name;
echo '<a href="' . $profile_url . '">' . $caption . '</a>';
}
}
This should solve your problem
