   Hi,

   I'm using an author template to show his posts of that user. It's working great for the first page, but when I go to another page, it gives me an 404 error page.

   http://celebrites.mesopinions.ca/author/frankthetank = WORKS
   http://celebrites.mesopinions.ca/author/frankthetank/page/2 = 404

   I did recreate a test on my local machine with the same settings and it works ! I also recreated the .htaccess file to be sure and still the 404. I'm using something similar on my other site and I do not get an 404 error ( http://mesopinions.ca/author/frankthetank/page/2 ). I also tried with the twenty ten theme but I get the same error (it give's me the same url).

   I already went to the permalink page in admin to regenerate everything, still the 404.

   Any idea what is causing this ?
   Thanks a lot

   Anyone got the same problem ??
   Can't figure out what is causing this on that website, and not on the test one with the same configs...

   The problem was that the query in the author.php was querying only the post_type='post'. Even if I added the arguments in the query_posts function, it would still query only the post.

   To fix it, only add this code
   

   add_filter('parse_query', 'parse_query_handler');
   function parse_query_handler($q){
   	if (isset($q->query_vars['author_name']) && $q->query_vars['author_name'] != ''){
   		$q->query_vars['post_type'] = array("photos", "videos", "nouvelles");
   	}
   	return $q;
   }

   Replace the array("photos", "videos", "nouvelles"); with your custom post types.
