Hello, we have a Editorial section on the website which shows the latest 3 editorials on the homepage via a block / flexblock. Is there a way to modify a block’s code to show the author’s image instead of the featured image? And, if not, how can we go about resolving this?
Thank you,
Andrei.
Hello Andrei!
Yes, by using a custom module template: https://forum.tagdiv.com/modules-builder-newspaper-theme/
Create a new custom module template from Cloud Templates -> Modules.
On the homepage, you should add this element and select your custom module created from this dropdown: https://app.screencast.com/HkE4twhMYIwel

Thank you!
Hello, thank you for your response, everything worked out great except now I stumbled on another issue:
The setup is: Left author pic (ok) – Right-top Author name (problem), Right-bottom article title (ok).
When setting the author name in the custom module template, it shows a random author (no problem here) but on the frontend it shows all editorials as written by the admin account. In tag-div editor they are assigned ok, but not on the published page. Is there a fix for this?
Thank you,
Andrei.
Hello Andrei!
Did you use the Module Author Name shortcode?
It should display the name of the author assigned on that post.
Thank you!
Yes, that is the one I used, selected from the available modules in the template builder. Is there an actual [shortcode] I can use instead?
Hello Andrei!
No. I’ve tested and for me it worked. Make a test and deactivate all plugins except tagDiv ones. Also, if you are using a cache plugin, deactivate it, clear all cache, and try again.
If the problem is still there, then please contact us via email at contact@tagdiv.com and provide the following:
– admin url and credentials
– a link to this topic in order to identify you
Thank you!
