Hi @andergmartins ,

Thanks for the update, I’ve updated our development and staging environments with the beta update.

I’ll let you know how testing goes.

Thanks again for all the hard work, really appreciate it.

Hi @stevejburge ,

I installed the v3.14.5-rc.1 version in our development environment, and had our content producers test.

Following are their findings:

I'm seeing very little difference compared to the last version. After the initial test with our child theme active, I deactivated all other plug-ins other than SSO and switched to the Twenty-Twenty theme.
 

For both standard posts and custom post types, top byline/ post-author meta-text pulls from the default author set in PublishPress Authors settings (seems to be author associated with the post upon Add New Post).
	
Author bio at the bottom of the page is the guest author selected for the post. Image displays on standard posts and no image displaying on custom post types.
	
Editing the post reverts the author field to the default from PublishPress Author settings. The WordPress dashboard for all posts displays the last selected PublishPress Author and mapped user fallback.

Hi @stevejburge ,

My firewall will not allow access to the link in your post.

My workplace has severe restrictions on what links we are allowed to access safely.

Is it possible to deploy the pre release version to github, I do have access to that ?

Unfortunately Dropbox or Google Drive is not allowed either.

I apologize for making this so difficult

Thanks for any help you can provide.

Hi @nmottet and @andergmartins , we are also on WordPress 5.8 and Publishpress authors Version 3.14.4.

We have experienced similar issues as described here.

The top byline only fills in with the default author.

It appears that the author metadata is not updating.

These issues exist with the 2020 theme.

Thanks for any help you can provide.
