Hi, I am not a moderator nor do I have anything to do with Newspaper Theme other than I have just purchased the theme a few days ago.
But to get your image in the Author box you need to go to your user profile panel in WordPress dashboard and fill your Bio in there.
To get an image I use a Plugin called WP User Avatar by flippercode this allows you to upload a profile image to your user profile.
Hi,
User avatar is wp settings not newspaper, and yes for the moment it can be set only with a plugin ( like: WP User Avatar ); or you can use gravatar ( if you desire to use gravatar please read this documentation https://forum.tagdiv.com/how-to-set-the-avatar/)
Thank you for your understanding.
Hi jalewa,
If you don’t desire to use plugins, and you still want to havean avatar you need to make an gravatar account ( gravatar is not a plugin), please read again the above documentation carefully.
I will put your request on the list of future realize and development team will take care of it if they consider it.
Thank you for your understanding.
