Author box not linked to author page

Hi,

When I click on the author box image/text linked to my user ID, it brings me back to the homepage. My author card shows up on the end of posts, but when clicked, it also goes to the homepage. It wasn’t always like this if I remember right; I’m wondering if when I deleted the demo posts/pages, I accidentally deleted this linked page?

Regardless, I’m not sure how to edit the link of my user name/image so it directs to an author page (either a default one or something custom). I haven’t been able to find a help page that explains how to do this. Right now, I can do it through a link on my Header or by adding “author page link text,” but would prefer not to have to do it that way.

I hope this makes sense. I’m quite new to this.

Thanks,
Daniel

Thanks for the reply, Bogdan!

Here’s the link the author box in question (but it applies to others I create too): http://danielpaulchristie.com.

Also maybe the author archives are disabled in the Yoast plugin, if they are author links will be redirected to the homepage. Check if that is the case – http://prntscr.com/mbwwuk

Calin: That’s what I was looking for so I can have it set up and customize it! I had set up a page and tried to link it, but I didn’t realize I needed to do it under “cloud templates.” Thanks!

Edward: That explains why things changed! I installed the Yoast plugin not too long ago and you were right that the author archives were disabled. I’ve changed that now. Thanks so much!
