I have created a Worpress Archive for Author. When I hover over the link, I see that the URL is pointing to "hidden link". However, the moment I click on the link, the page is redirected to the Home page.

I have no explicit redirects set anywhere. I have double-checked my .htaccess file, and it doesn't contain anything that would cause this page to redirect. I completely cleared my browsing cache, restarted the browser (Chrome) and tried again. This makes no sense at all.

I have successfully created Author Archive views on other websites, and I used exactly the same process on this website. What am I missing?

I double-checked that Yoast has author archive enabled, that did not solve the problem.
I've also tried setting Yoast to identify the blog as a multi-author blog. That doesn't help either.

Okay, I guess I needed to clear the cache a second time after making changes to Yoast's settings, but I got it to work.
