Some themes have an extended author box

Hey Fleeky, what do you mean by extended?
You've aroused my curiosity. :-))

With one of my themes, the box is almost an about me page,
full of whistles and bells. Social media, extea links, other posts, previous, next

Thank,you Triblu

Good evening Trish,

Good little training. As I said to Fran I also have a sidebar widget with a hello and a photo. I think that looks ok. I do not know if my theme allows for an Author Box on Posts. Hope I am good with the widget.
Today Michael and I were being builders again, having fun with the cement mix machine. In a big flower box, the roots had infiltrated making it impossible for my roses and bulbs to grow.
We need rain!, The weather is too nice.

Hey Taetske,

Your use of your sidebar widget is a great idea. I have had a theme in the past that offered that option. However, I have found more success using the sidebar for a sign up form for a freebie so that I can create a list.

If you ask the fella who runs the show to make it rain for you, you just might be surprised. I asked that the GTA be spared that nasty weather warning that was issued yesterday, and thankfully we did not experience the nasty stuff anywhere even close to what was predicted. Pheeeew! And today, well... it's the high of 8°C today... yeaaaah! No snow... no ice!

Your 8C during the day is my 8C during the night.
It is 45 days without rain and we are watering the garden as if it were summer.
I am going to update to the new Wordpress, wish me luck.

Abrazo del Sur, Taetske

I'm glad to hear about the plugin. I have a sort of "business card" on my right sidebar, but it is nice to know how to put an author box at the bottom. Thanks!

Good evening Fran,

I have put my Gravatar picture with a little text as a widget on my sidebar, My business card.

I was wondering how to add that on my posts. Now you just answered it without me asking how to! And the way you showed it looks very easy to do. You are awesome Trish! Thank you so much!😄

Wish you more success in the online world!
Cheers!

My theme didn´t display the author box, so I use the plugin "Author Bio Box"
It takes not only the profile picture and the biographical info from the users page but also the social media icons
