Thank you very much, I managed to alter the object in a safe webspace the way I intended.

Now like I mentioned above, I need to duplicate the authors box object on our website because I need to use the one with the biography as well as the one without it.

I duplicated the td_block_authors.php file and renamed it and I also put it into the td_config file, but when I try to use the block in the editor it keeps on loading. If I use the same code in the td_block_authors file, it works. I think I have to register the block somewhere else, but I do not know where.
