What it does
Many blogs and content sites publish posts with little or no information about the person behind them. This plugin fills that gap with an author box you build and style inside Elementor, without writing code. You can show one author or several, which helps on posts written by co-authors or guest contributors. Each box can carry the author's name, bio, social media profiles, email address and website link, giving readers a direct path to the people creating the content.
The layout is flexible. You can rearrange the elements in the box, add new ones or remove the ones you do not need, and place custom text before or after the author's name or biography. The boxes are responsive and retina ready, so they adapt to different screens. Beyond Elementor pages, you can also place author boxes elsewhere on your site through widgets or shortcodes. The plugin requires Elementor.
