I am trying to: display the role of the author of a post

I tried to insert it automatically, but I cannot find role. I did find userlevel: [wpv-post-author format='meta' meta='user_level'], I would expect the same for user role, but that is not the case. Can you help?

Dear marijke,

There is not such a feature within shortcode [wpv-post-author ], see document:
https://toolset.com/documentation/user-guides/views-shortcodes/#wpv-post-author

Currently, I suggest you try the solution in another thread:
