Tell us what you are trying to do?
On the right column of any essay page there is a View for other essays by the same author. The link to the name of the author should go to the author's about page, but it seems there are extra quotes around the url sending it to a 404 page.

Is there any documentation that you are following?

Here is what I have for [wpv-loop] in the "get-related-author-essay-widget":
[wpv-view name="display-author-related-essay-widget" authorname='[wpv-post-link]' wpvrelatedto="[wpv-post-id]"]
And here is what I have before the loop in the "display-related-author-essay-widget":
<h6 class="author-related-essays">other essays by <br><span>[wpv-attribute name="authorname"]</span></h6>

I believe there is some error in this code producing extra quotes.

Is there a similar example that we can see?

Hi there,

I'd appreciate it if you could give me the URL/User/Pass of your WordPress dashboard after you make sure that you have a backup of your website.
It is absolutely important that you give us a guarantee that you have a backup so if something happens you will have a point of restore.

Make sure you set the next reply as private.

Also, please tell us which view to check.

Hi there,

I fixed the issue by using the combination of:

https://toolset.com/documentation/programmer-reference/views/views-shortcodes/#vf-153369

and:

https://toolset.com/documentation/programmer-reference/views/views-shortcodes/#vf-154469

So I added two attributes one having the title and the other one having the URL and in the View that retrieves the info, I just added the A tag.

Thanks.
