Author's Box Problem

Posted in: Newsmag

I deleted some users with spam registration signups and they are showing up on my about us page still listed as authors, but they are not even members of the site still. How do I remove them? I tried remove the author box and add to the page again but still they show up even when they are not listed as members of the site.

Wish they were automatically removed when deleting their accounts off the website.

Here is the image that I was talking about, because I am going to change the page. There is absolutely no reason to have authors showing that do not exist on the website at all. So I am going to find another way to show authors on my about us page.

Using the “Author Avatar List plugin” on WordPress repository. It work just the same as your author box when clicking on posts link. It goes to the same author posts lists. I will stick with this if you don’t have a way to remove the authors that don’t exist within the website after deleted. For some reason this plugin does what should be done. Just now don’t have the nice looks for the display of posts and comments from your author box.

Nevermind guys. I fixed it by guessing on the ids of the deleted accounts, and apparently I have got them removed from the page. So now I am sticking with you Author’s Box now, and I will just have to remember the ids of the deleted accounts to exclude. Don’t worry about this now. I haven’t been getting registration spam either since I put those emails in ban hammer. So I guess I will use the regular modal login/registration on top bar too.

Don’t worry about me being upset, because I wasn’t, just trying to figure out things. Really love this theme. 🙂

Hi doucare1971,

Thanks for letting us know about this and glad you’ve managed to find a workaround on this eventually.
We haven’t tested the authors box with for this case so might have missed something but we will and fix if we find something wrong.

Thanks for the message!
