Hi,
I added some basic html to format the biographical info in my user profile. That’s working fine in the author box at the end of my posts (e.g. http://excellenceaktuell.de/wer-schreibt-hier-und-warum/). It is not working in the author box on author pages (e.g. http://excellenceaktuell.de/author/admin/).
Any ideas how to fix that?
Regards
Richard
Hi,
Please check this solution – https://forum.tagdiv.com/topic/author-page-2/#post-56809
I have added this on our list and we will try to find a better implementation.
Thanks!
Hi Alin,
thanks, that worked perfect!

Hi,
unfortunately it isn’t any more as it was yesterday. The only remaining formatting is bold (on post pages as well as the author page).
I’m not sure what exactly I did, but one thing I remember: I changed the visual composer settings and activated the post content type.
Any idea how I get back the p and br tags working in the biographical info box?
Regards
Richard
Hi,
I’m not sure what the issue is, as I have checked author box and author page and it looks the same – http://screencast.com/t/aecT607qp3h6 – http://screencast.com/t/nOMCHH8puKW Try to re-add author description like you wish to look using html – http://screencast.com/t/YL1s3yho7y
Thanks!
Hi Alin,
it’s supposed to look like this (as it looked before):

Hi,
Add the following code at the end of functions.php? – http://screencast.com/t/gYiC2w4hsT
remove_filter('pre_user_description', 'wp_filter_kses');
Insert the bio data again and save the settings.
Thank you!
Hi Emil,
perfect! 🙂

Hello all,
Just to confirm, this is working on Newspaper V 6.6.4 also. I just added the code.
Hopefully, it doesn’t get override when a newer version is installed? Will it?
Thanks

Hi,
All the theme files will be overwritten when you update the theme and you will have to re-add the code modifications. Only the theme and wordpress settings should not be affected by the update, but anyway it is recommended to make a full backup of your installation before – https://codex.wordpress.org/WordPress_Backups
Thanks!
