    Author Page on steroids

    Just finished customizing my author page to be a little more robust: admin | FraserValleySwap.com

    In my research I found that a lot of local sellers of new and used goods online want the ability to have some sort of profile that showcases all of their ads on one page, kind of like their own virtual store. The current "author" page was hard to find and only listed 10 random ads as text links. The modified version I have built now includes the full loop, but only calls ads from the specific user's id. It shows 10 ads at a time then starts the pagination, same as the regular loop. Much of the formatting was modified to match my theme I am working on. I also added a link to this page from every single ad listing, at the bottom of the ad, to better highlight this new page. A lot of the time people like to see what else the particular seller has to offer. and this accomplishes that nicely.

    Once I go through and upgrade to ClassiPress 3.1.3 I will post a little tutorial and some code on how to accomplish this if there is interest. 3.1.3 changes a few things that I will have to re-work slightly.

    Compare to the original author page for reference: David | ClassiPress Demo
