 * I know there was a previous version of this question, but the OP found a solution
   before an answer was posted. I’m having the same problem. The tick box for author
   name linking to author URL is checked, but the link does not appear in the post.
   Is there something I’m missing?

 * That option is referred to the author website URL, not the archive page. this
   is gonna be fixed in the next update.
