VERY NICE! Installed and love it.. if you have time may I request two new features?
option to add avatar of author
and
sort order based on number of post and a max number of shown authors
if you tell what where in class-list-authors.php to add the call for avatar I think I might can break it.. I mean do it =)
I’m glad you like the plugin. The max posts and sort are commonly requested options. Unfortunately, those additions must be made to the wp_list_authors template tag which is part of core Wordpress. I have submitted a feature request for this and in fact hope to contribute to it myself. So, it’s not available now but hopefully it will be in an upcoming version of Wordpress.
Similarly, avatar support would have to be added in the template tag.
darn.. glad you’re fighting the battle to have this added. You’re a good man Charlie Brown.
hey if you want to link exchange I’ll add you to my (currently non existent) blog roll. just let me know kturner at analysisandreview dot com
nice blend of life =) I might do the same on mine.
Hello, very nice plug-in – I am testing it now.
I would like to exclude all authors from a particular Category. Can this be done? I am interested to know how.
Thank you,
daurora
Hi daurora,
The List Authors plugin makes use of the wp_list_authors template tag which unfortunately does not support that feature.
