I have been able to add the author’s posts to the authors new custom page. I just have 2, hopefully small issues, that I would love to solve.
Gap Element Spacing: As a reference, here are the elements on the page with VC:

Here is a screen grab of the page, how can I decrease the Gap/spacing between the 3 elements? link below

User Setting: To select the author’s posts in Block 6 in VC, using the Author’s filter, I only had access to “Lenny da Vinci’s” ID after changing his role from Author to Administrator: links below

If we could find solutions to both of these issues that would be great.
Thank you again for all your help. I really appreciate it!
Thank you I really appreciate your help. I found out how to locate the author ID numbers. And was able to redirect the author to their new page. Now I just one last important element… How can I have the author’s past posts display on the new page?
Thank you, you guys are great!
Where can do I find out what an author’s ID number is? I can’t seem to find it?
I also need to implement each author image to link to their own custom author page.
I’ve added the code to the functions.php page as directed. Could please provide more detail on this part… “Change the ID for each author and page you want to redirect. In my case author with ID 1 will go to contact page, write there the slug of the page you want to redirect.”
I would really appreciate adding this functionality. In order to use this theme I have to be ability to have each author’s page include a few different/additional elements.
Thank you again for your great support!
Hi tadDiv support, we need this contributor functionality too. Could you clarify your comment “our theme doesn’t support this”? Do you mean that the Newspaper theme does not have that functionality, but if we add the “User Role Editor” plugin we could add that ability through WordPress?
Thank you again for awesome support!
Thank you that worked perfectly!
Hi Radu, I can’t put the link on a discussion board but I could send the link to you in an email. Do you have an email address that I should send it to?
Thank You,
Brent
Here is another example of what another user did with the Newspaper Header Menu.
Like Disqver.com, I would love to have my Header Menu show up to the Right of my Logo. And be at the same level as the logo too. I did try using the code you suggested to AJ on March 31st with no luck.
I appreciate your suggestions.
Thank yoU!
Hi, thank you for your fast response. But I was referring to the “Header” menu, not the Top menu.
In the example noted above, it would be the Header Menu with News, Features, Interviews, Previews & Reviews that is right of their Logo.
Thank you again!
Hi, I tried pasting the code above in the Theme Panel Custom CSS window, then saved, but nothing happened. Was there something else I needed to do? I’m using Newspaper 3.5.
Thank you again for your always mega fast response!
Hello, I would love to move my header menu to the right of my logo, as mushroomrobot.com did above.

Could you let me know how he achieved this?
I am running version 3.5 of Newspaper.
Thank you again for all your awesome support!
