I recently set up a gravitar pic which shows up at the top corner of the admin page of my site but still does not appear at the top of every blog entry – for author. I am the only blog author on the site. Any ideas?

Hi @hollyeh,

Do you mean an author box? If so, there is no feature for this. You will need to search for appropriate author box plugin in WordPress Plugin Directory

Let me know if otherwise.

Maybe it would help if you looked at any post on this site – you can see the gravitar pic does not show up at the top where my name is “Hollye”.

Hi Hollye,

Do you mean in http://mydreamlife.me/dream-video-devil-room/ where your name is beside a user icon?
This is not possible as that is just a link. Avatars will show up on comments.

If it is somewhere else, please let me know.

I see. So there is nothing more interesting I can have by my name (as the author of the blog posts) other than that little figure of a person?
Which is so boring!

Hi @hollyen,

You can have anything you want there but you need to do a bit of customization for that. First, create a child theme. Details for creating a child theme is here.

Then in the child theme’s functions.php, add function posted here: http://pastebin.com/WNFepRRW

Then in there you can edit line 28 to 34 to add any effect you want using html, css and even php.

If you are not familiar with customization, please hire a customizer.
