   Background:

   I'm modifying the default loop in an author archive to display multiple post types with post formats enabled. I tried using a tax_query to exclude several of the formats from the query but I can't get it to work. $paged is properly defined higher up.

   Anybody see anything wrong with this code block?

   $exclude_terms = array(
   	array(
   		'taxonomy' => 'post_format',
   		'field' => 'slug',
   		'terms' => array( 'post-format-quote', 'post-format-status', 'post-format-video' ),
   		'compare' => 'NOT IN'
   	)
   );
   
   query_posts( $query_string . '&posts_per_page=10&post_type=any&paged=' . $paged . '&tax_query=' . $exclude_terms );

   After a bit of tinkering, I finally got it working. Big changes were namely changing 'compare' to 'operator' in tax_query and passing in the other parameters as part of the $exclude_terms array.

   $exclude_terms = array(
   	'post_type' => 'any',
   	'author' => $author_id,
   	'posts_per_page' => 10,
   	'paged' => $paged,
   	'tax_query' => array(
   		array(
   		'taxonomy' => 'post_format',
   		'field' => 'slug',
   		'terms' => array( 'post-format-link', 'post-format-status' ),
   		'operator' => 'NOT IN'
   		)
   	)
   );
   
   query_posts( $exclude_terms );
