You need to add this code to the file functions.php. function custom_post_author_archive($query) { if ($query->is_author) $query->set( ‘post_type’, array(‘post-type’, ‘post’) ); remove_action( ‘pre_get_posts’, ‘custom_post_author_archive’ ); } add_action(‘pre_get_posts’, ‘custom_post_author_archive’);
You could try the following SQL query: “SELECT DISTINCT post_author FROM $wpdb->posts WHERE post_author NOT IN (1,3,4)” to exclude authors 1,3 and 4. In general it would be more handy to retrieve the user ids automatically, so you wouldn’t need to update your SQL query every time you want to exclude someone. You could for … Read more
If you require customized solution then you can use user query like this. <?php $args = array( ‘who’ => ‘authors’, ‘orderby’ => ‘display_name’ ); $wp_user_query = new WP_User_Query($args); if ( ! empty( $wp_user_query->results ) ) { foreach ( $wp_user_query->results as $user ) { echo ‘<span class=”abc”><a href=”‘ . get_author_posts_url( $user->ID ) . ‘”>’ . $user->display_name … Read more
Is there a specific reason you aren’t using WP_User_Query? It would make it easier to do what you want to. You can read up on it here. Something along these lines would solve your problem, as far as I understand it: $args = array( “meta_key” => “ArtistCategory”, “meta_value” => “X” //or “Z” ); $authors = … Read more
Ok, so I found the solution to this problem and I thought I’d post it here for anyone else who may stumble upon this question. Turns out I was making this much more difficult than it needed to be. I just added a simple function to the custom site plugin I created (this could also … Read more
If you look at the source code of wp_list_authors you will see that the link is generated by a call to get_author_posts_url. The latter has a filter that allows for modification of the url. So, you would have to find the filters in BuddyPress and bbPress and remove them.
It doesn’t appear that wp_list_authors() supplies an appropriate hook to modify anything unfortunately. The next best thing would be to just do a string replace and hope for the best :/ $start_wrapper=”<span class=”author-post-count”>”; // Set our wrapper start tag $end_wrapper=”</span>”; // Set our wrapper end tag $author_html = wp_list_authors( array( // Get Author HTML ‘optioncount’ … Read more
wp_list_authors(), displays a list of the sites’s authors (users), and if the user has authored any posts, the author name is displayed as a link to their posts. Use $authors = get_users( [ ‘role__in’ => [ ‘auther’] ], // add other parameters ); Then loop through $authors to create your own list. foreach ( $authors … Read more
@CynthiaLara I suppose that you are using a container of WP_USER_QUERY::__construct in the form or WP_USER_QUERY or get_users or something to that effect. You can use ‘meta_key’ => ‘<YOUR_DESIGNATION_META_KEY>’,’orderby’ => ‘meta_value_num, to get results sorted by your meta key’s value. If you have used a texted based value in for this meta_key, please consider using … Read more
What you want is not supported by wp_list_authors(). To output them the way you want you will need to use get_users() and display them yourself. $authors = get_users( array( ‘orderby’ => ‘display_name’, ‘order’ => ‘ASC’ ) ); foreach ( $authors as $author ) { echo esc_html( $author->last_name . ‘ ‘ . $author->first_name ); } You … Read more
