When you disable the User Community, the plugin does nothing with the Author’s link. The Author link is a WordPress filter that is generated automatically only when the Community plugin is active and the ‘Link Author to profile’ is active.
I think you have to find the problem in other plugins or in the theme you’re using, as it is not possible for the Community plugin to change the Author link when the Community plugin is disabled.
I’ve watched your site, and seen the author links are in place in all pages except in home. As an example, in this page you have the links: http://www.eteignezvotreordinateur.com/category/choc-et-insolite/
As said, this is not related to the User Community plugin, as it does nothing when the plugin is (or the author links) are disabled.

Thank you for your help !
Before I enable user community, there was the link to author archive on the author’name on the home.
When I have enabled User Community, the author’s name linked to profile.
Now I disabled User Community, so the author’s name has no one link, though the “<?php the_author_posts_link(); ?>” on homepage theme.
I made no changes on the site, plugin or theme, only activated User community that I wanted to test (it’s a wonderful plugin that I will use soon, when my server will be great).
So I don’t find what could be the problem, excepted User community..? Even if other pages like categories don’t have this bug.
What do u think ?
Another way to resolve this problem : to have an option on the author profile of User Community to show ALL posts archive of an author via a link fore instance (not juste the recent posts).
Waiting for your answer, and sorry for my basic english.
Well, I tested it on some of my sites and it works as expected. Disabling the plugin or the ‘authors link’ goes back to the author pages. You can see it at http://supersalidos.net/ (just changed for a while for you to see).
Also debugged the plugin to follow this, and when disabled, it does nothing on the author link (as the filter to author is not applied). So, sure is not related to plugin.
About your idea, I will set an option to add the link to author pages in the user profile. I like it 🙂

Txanny, you’re are 100% RIGHT. PLEASE forgive me, there was missed a simple quote on my code on the index.php :(((( I’m tired these days…
I’m VERY sorry to have spent your time !
I have resolved the problem !
However, my false question permitted to find a new idea for your wonderful plugin : to link author archives from profile 😉
Very sorry et thousand thanks from France for this plugin my dear !!
Evo, c’est la vie! Don’t worry. Just your comments were useful: Including the link, and to automatically provide author pages in my theme 🙂
By the way, when debugging it I’ve found a small mistake. When this option is active and you use the_author_posts_link(); the link is generated in a non polite way. This has been changed/corrected for the next version.
