Hi @matthieulllrc,
thanks for reporting! We are working into fixing this.
Could you confirm whether this happened with previous version 4.0.8?
That’s great! Thanks for reporting and confirming.
Hi @matthieulllrc,
thanks for letting us know! Which version of the plugin do you have installed? Does it happen with latest 4.0.9?
Hi @cgscomputers,
could you please provide a URL we can check? Also, could you let us know which theme(s) are those 2 sites using?
We will try to replicate the issue and look into it.
Thanks for reporting!
Hi @suweiichong,
i used a different way (‘tag’ instead of ‘author’ in query) to have the post archived under all 3 authors.
Not really sure what you mean… maybe that you use the “Posts” element instead of the “Archive Posts”?
I also found out the issue only happens after I used elementor’s archive template
But did you do a plugin conflict check? You might have another plugin modifying archive titles…
Can you confirm that you are using the “Archive Title” element to display the author name as page title?
Hi @suweiichong,
Wrong Author name on the title, it should be AUTHOR: JOSHUA TAY
We’ve set up a testing installation with Hello theme, Elementor and Molongui Authorship. We have made a template for author archives using the “Archive Title” element to display the author name. But we have not been able to reproduce the issue. It’s working fine on our end. Could you please do a plugin conflict check? Check here how to do that step by step. There might be some plugin conflicting. If you find out which it is, we can look into it.
And, the co-authored post isn’t included under the author’s except for the 1st author too.
From what I can see, the post you linked is displayed for all three authors on their archive pages. Not sure if you meant that.
To let anyone having similar issue know:
When selecting multiple authors for an article, any authors after the first author are being lumped together into one link, which leads to the second author’s profile only.
Make sure to de-activate any other authorship plugin you might have. Mungerverna had the Co-authors Plus plugin installed and active. That plugin provides co-authoring features, but it didn’t work well for her so she decided to try out Molongui Authorship. Co-authors Plus conflicts with Molongui Authorship so, as Molongui Authorship provides all the features Co-authors Plus offers and even more, deactivate that plugin and stick to Molongui Authorship.
The author box also reads as (…)
Newspaper theme automatically displays an author box at the end of your posts. But it doesn’t support multiple authors. To display a proper author box, 100% customizable and showing all authors information, disable Newspaper’s author box (check here how to) and enable Molongui Authorship’s author box.
Hi @mungerverna,
you should open a support ticket with us here providing your System Status Report (check here how to get it) or list here the active plugins on your site, as you prefer. This might be a plugin conflict. May be just knowing which plugins you have enabled we can guess which might be causing conflicts so we can look into it.
Regarding the author box displaying wrong data that is because that author box is displayed by your theme. You should disable it and activate the one provided by our plugin. That way you will get 100% compatibility.
Hi @fatnut,
that notice should not be displayed. But it displaying indicates that the plugin cannot determine the type of author being retrieved, which is kind of weird. Where do you get it, frontend or backend? On which pages? Can you provide a URL we can check?
Hi @sashman13,
yes, the plugin does work well with Elementor. I assume that you meant the “Posts” element. If so, I can confirm that bylines display the author(s) you have added to the each post, either it they are users, guests or mixed.
The Pro add-on also provides useful shortcodes you can use with Elementor to create custom pages, for instance. Besides the most used [molongui_author_box], [molongui_author_list] and [molongui_author_posts] shortcodes, which display an author box, a list of authors and a list of posts by author, respectively, you have other shortcodes to display author data (author name, author avatar, author email address, author bio…), an HTML link to the author archive page or to a social network and also the post byline. You can check out here all available shortcodes.
we have just released and update (4.0.7) that addresses a similar issue to the one reported originally by Germán. If yours is indeed related, this update should fix it. So please update to latest version.
Feel free to get back to us if it doesn’t.
Thanks to @german71 we have been able to track down and fix an issue that arose when having thousands of users. So thanks Germán!
Released version 4.0.6 fixes this.
Hi @ctaylor30,
Author Box display is controlled with the “Display > Post Types” setting you can find under: Molongui > Authorship Settings > Author Box. If you want it to be displayed only on Posts, configure it to “Only Posts”. Regardless of the other setting you mention, that should work for you.
The other setting you say that reverts to “On” is a Premium setting, so you cannot change it. Anyway, it doesn’t control Author Box display. It enables/disables all plugin features on different post types.
Please, take a look at this support article that explains how Author Box display settings work.
Please, let me know if this is of any help for you.
Great! Thank YOU for reporting and letting us know!
