Good morning. This is my blog: https://viajeros30.com/

In the post, I want to keep the author’s name but I want to remove the URL that leads to the author’s page. At the moment I am redirecting to the ‘about us’ page but I want to remove the URL or, at least, point it to that other page. How could I do that?”

Hello,
as a quick solution will be to use a css to no remove the possibility to click on link. For this please add this custom css to Newspaper > Theme Panel > Custom code> Csutom css
.post header .td-post-author-name a {
pointer-events: none;
}

Another possibility is to use Yoast seo and enable the author archive
I hope this will help you!
Thank you!

Hi rebecaserna,
The Yoast SEO has an option for author archive and if this is enabled when you click on author name or you try to get on author page you will be redirect to homepage.
Thank you!

Dear devs, please consider adding a toggle option to the next release.

This has been requested a few times, and it would be really helpful to show the author name without a hyperlink.

Hi again,

I thought the custom css remove the link but the reality is that only remove the possibility to click on link. Any other option to remove the author link?
