 * and sorry for all.
 * NOT : $ps = get_posts(‘numberposts=3&post_type=post&author=’ . $author->ID);
 * **TRUE: $ps = get_posts(‘numberposts=1&post_type=post&author=’ . $author->ID);**
 * why those codes doesn’t run?

 * this is the solution… you can get last 3 author posts with these codes.

 * if you use the code button, or post between backtics (under the esc key on an
   american keyboard, same key as ~) it will keep your code from being messed up
   on here
 *     ```
       it will look like this
       and not get parsed
       much easier to read
       and you don't lose any code
       ```

 * to mark code in this forum, press the ‘code’ buttom once, then paste the code,
   then press the ‘code’ button again;
 * or:
    paste the code, hightlight the code, then press the ‘code’ button.
 * ps:
    you can edit each of your replies for up to 30 minutes after presssing the‘
   post’ button; and for instance fix the code markup
