   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!)
