Hi there,

I created a custom author archive that shows the listing of that specific advertiser, see: hidden link

Except for creating the loop to show the ads of the advertiser I can't seem to ad additional content.

For example, I would like to display User Fields I created above the ads list, how can I achieve this?

Hi Coet,

Thank you for contacting our support forum.

This archive is displaying what the authors and their posts ? Would you mind allowing me to have a look at the setup on the backend ?

I believe I know the issue but can explain better once I have a look.

Thanks,
Shane

Hi Coet,

Thank you for the credentials.

You should be able to add information on the author by clicking the Fields and Views button and then click on Post Author. See Screenshot.

Please let me know if this helps.
Thanks,
Shane
