This will retrieve the posts of current author when used in the loop. Put the following in your theme functions.php: function my_get_display_author_posts() { global $authordata, $post; $authors_posts = get_posts( array( ‘author’ => $authordata->ID, ‘post__not_in’ => array( $post->ID ) ) ); $output=”<ul>”; foreach ( $authors_posts as $authors_post ) { $output .= ‘<li><a href=”‘ . get_permalink( $authors_post->ID … Read more
To access the author user object outside of the loop on an author archive, you can do the following: global $curauth; $curauth = (isset($_GET[‘author_name’])) ? get_user_by(‘slug’, $author_name) : get_userdata(intval($author)); echo ‘This is the author page of ‘.$curauth->display_name;
The role “Reviewer” only has special capabilities, no other capabilities. To get into the author list you have to be at least a contributor or author. function rb_addroles() { $role = get_role(‘contributor’); remove_role( ‘reviewer’ ); add_role( ‘reviewer’, ‘Reviewer’, $role->capabilities ); $reviewer = get_role(‘reviewer’); $reviewer->add_cap( ‘edit_review’ ); $reviewer->add_cap( ‘read_review’ ); $reviewer->add_cap( ‘delete_review’ ); } add_action( ‘admin_init’, … Read more
I am using the WP Subscribe Author plugin which does the job. I did some tweaking to the email that is sent in the PHP file as the default email didn’t include a link to the post.

Try it: <?php echo get_the_author_meta( ‘display_name’, $post->post_author ); ?> You can use the_author function in wordpress standard loop, Not foreach. to set global author information you should use the_post function. but in foreach, you can use get_the_author_meta instead of the_author to pass author id $post->post_author.
I believe the function you want is get_author_posts_url.
To do this literally (put authors into groups) best way would probably be to create custom taxonomy for users. See custom user taxonomies in WordPress for reference. However the end result you are looking for does not really deal with grouping users – it deals with grouping posts. Registering custom taxonomy (“company”) for posts would … Read more
Put this in your functions.php: function get_users_ordered_by_post_date($args=””) { // Prepare arguments if (is_string($args) && ” !== $args) parse_str($args, $args); $asc = (isset($args[‘order’]) && ‘ASC’ === strtoupper($args[‘order’])); unset($args[‘orderby’]); unset($args[‘order’]); // Get ALL users $users = get_users($args); $post_dates = array(); if ($users) { // For EACH user … foreach ($users as $user) { $ID = $user->ID; // … Read more
Your code should works. The line: include (get_template_directory_uri() . ‘/articles.php’); Needs to have allow_url_include=1 in the server configration because you are trying to include a file via http. Can you check this? You must know also that template_redirect should be use for a real redirect, a include() may have undesired effects here. I think what … Read more
