I am creating a blog with many authors and I would only like to display their categories and tags .. on author.php
is there a something similar to this functions that allows you to get only the categories by a specific author?
<?php $categories = get_categories( $args ); ?>

One possibility would be to use the template tag, get_posts(), to retrieve all posts for an author, then rifle through those posts to collect the list of categories and tags used.

hey slivehappy im trying to do the exact same thing as you, have you found a solution yet?
michael explained a way that i can display the categories, but i want to explode categories the author has not written in. right now it just displays every category that exists
