ParticipantHello!
I just started my website http://www.wumanity.com and I am using Gridalicious, and it is just so great! Thank you!
On the loop home page, with the latest posts at the timeline, there is a problem. It only displays the date and the edit link, but not the author name. Is that possible to fix it? I do have a child theme, also with that content-page.php it was recommended in this question https://catchthemes.com/support-forum/topic/author-and-updated-missing-in-pages-structured-data/ but it is still not working to the author show up.
Plus, I would like to have this 3 information at the footer of the post.
Thank you in advance.
Best regards,

KeymasterHi @RossanaGB,
Can you try activating the parent theme and see if the author is shown there or not?

ParticipantHello @pratik !
The parent theme was activated before and the author was not showing up in the front page loop posts, but now it’s too late for me to show you this, as, last ninght, I edited the parent theme page called content.php and put there the tag calling the name of the author, I found it at wordpress website, and put it along with the meta at the footer of the post. But, it was not showing up even at the parent theme, I guarantee you this.
Thank you for your attention!
Best regards

KeymasterHi @rossanabg,
Can you check our demo at http://catchtheme.com/demo/gridalicious? Is it showing what you wanted?

ParticipantHello @pratik, your link was not working, I guess you missed an “S” at the word “themes” at the domain name.
I used this https://catchthemes.com/demo/gridalicious/ and it is not possible to identify the problem as the demo is an static front page and there’s no posts loop, only sections.
If in this template is choose the option of not a static front page, but the latest posts instead, the loop come and in the front page there’s no author name at the meta, only the date. But if we click the title of the post and go to the single post page, then only there we can see the author name at the meta, along with the date. It was like this before I install the child and before I edited the code to force calling the author name.
Best regards

KeymasterThere should be a blog page, check https://catchthemes.com/demo/gridalicious/blog/

ParticipantYes, a blog, indeed.
That’s the problem. No author name in the excerpt, not even the date in this one (mine has the date). In this page you showed to me, there is only the featured image, title and excerpt. I meant to have the author name in the footer of the post/excerpt in this very page.
But I had to insert the tag to call it, as there were none.
It would be a good thing maybe to put in the customize options to decide what goes at the meta, and to put the option to decide in what pages the meta goes.

KeymasterHi @RossanaGB,
Just one more question, how many authors that have posts do you have in your blog? This is because my answer will depend on it.

KeymasterHi @RossanaGB,
Ah, then can you try adding another author with a post. When there is only one valid user, author is usually hidden.
Let me know the outcome.

ParticipantHello @pratik
I added another author to the blog, but in the loop of the index page, the only place that the name of the author shows up is the place I put the code by hand.
http://www.wumanity.com
But that is ok, I fixed it with this manual editing.
Thank you very much for your attention!
Best regards
