   Hi, all.

   I'm trying to display the authors website or AIM or Bio on each of the posts they write.

   All I can seam to use inside the loop is the_author_posts_link.

   Is there a way to display any of the authors profile info inside the loop?

   geezerd,

   WordPress Template Tags: http://codex.wordpress.org/Template_Tags/the_author_meta look toward the footer for more on the author.

   Thanks!

   I'm using the actual bio "About Yourself" field for the author to write whatever they like, using HTML (by putting remove_filter('pre_user_description', 'wp_filter_kses');
   in the functions.php.

   I just figured out you don't HAVE to put what the field says to put there in the profile contact info (except e-mail, which is required) so I'm having them put a 1 sentence bio or quote in the "Jabber / Google Talk" text field, then displaying that under their Gravatar and name.

   Just typing that in case anyone searches for it, maybe they'll come across this and find their answer. ;)
