Truble In google authorship markup

There are two ways to reach a profile, one is :

Abhishek Ghosh

I have used this for the above link :

<a href="https://plus.google.com/103599283279782477391/?rel=author">Abhishek Ghosh</a>

Then I went to Google Rich Snippet Testing tool :

http://www.google.com/webmasters/tools/richsnippets

But it is not showing my image, why ? Because I have not added this webpage from my G+ contributers section. I must give another link towards this domain. Look the difference of this URL on Rich Snippet tool :

http://profiles.wordpress.org/abhishek_ghosh/

Its showing my image, right ? The reason is nothing because it is a Profile page, Google knows very well that it is me. I added the link to my G+ as well. However it does not give warranty that image will appear in Google search. Another same kind of link towards my profile is :

https://plus.google.com/u/0/103599283279782477391/posts

/u/0/ are extra. It is better to avoid this url. Google says to link with the non sub directory one. It was created possibly during beta phase when we actually got invitation to use G+.

My case is different, do not test with mine links which are not written here; there is official reason. But the basic thing is easy. Even roboted out page will show profile if you link properly :

http://www.dmoz.org/public/profile?editor=abhishekghosh

I mathed both are same but my username of wordpress author upschub do I need to create another admin?

Dr. Abhishek Ghosh and Abhishek Ghosh are not same person. upschub and your real name are not the same person. Theoretically it might work, but practically it almost never works. You can change it from

/wp-admin/profile.php

page. There is no need to create another Admin.

It is expected to be your part of name, like AbhisheGhosh83 in my case if the domain is not mine and I have limited option to get rightly AbhishekGhosh username. You can link from your About Me page (not any other) or Author archival page.

As the domain is yours, you can verify with domain’s email too.
In real search, however image might not show for various reasons.

Your About Me or Author Archival webpage must have proper markups, preferably schema.org is suggested for newer websites. Google will gradually abandon the others, may be next year. If you use proper schema.org markup with HTML5 for person, except domain verification via email, nothing is needed.

Warning: Missing required hCard “author”.- How To Fix Google Authorship Error

Looking neat now.
hcard is a kind of Microformat. There are many types of Microformats. You have two missing data :

Warning: Missing required field "updated".
Warning: Missing required hCard "author".

Posts will not have the issue of missing author hcard, test it :

Try to use a custom HTML5 Theme to get the schema.org's all markups for webpage. That is what Google and other search engines are recommending now. As you are developing it now / upgrading the blog, it is easier to use / test and develop. Other markups will gradually will be phased out (hCard and vCard are unlikely to be replaced though) :

(Note : I have taken your degree, short name arbitrarily for example, please change and add more data…). Do not use Plugin for these purposes, you actually will never learn the logic of Semantic Web using the automated plugins. Whatever Theme, plugin you will use, you actually will need to hand code, more or less.

I am using jetpach plugin for showing my gravatar profile on my website…

Use any Gravatar / Profile image managing tool. There is Simple Local Avatars – http://wordpress.org/plugins/simple-local-avatars/ ; Add Local Avatar – http://wordpress.org/plugins/add-local-avatar/ etc. which will help you to customize the Avatar plus speed up your website. I do not whether they works with Jetpack as I do not use Jetpack…
