    Hi!
    I'm using Education Pro theme. By default the author name appears at the BOTTOM of posts instead of top. I would like to have it appear at the top, under the TITLE of the post.

    How can I customize the theme to accomplish that?

    example page on site

    Thanks!

    By default, the author name displays in the post info ( entry header ). See code for this under the Entry Header (HTML5) section https://my.studiopress.com/documentation/snippets/

    Look for code in your theme which removes/adds the post_author shortcode.

    Thanks for the quick reply. I still need some help.

    What I am trying to add is the [post_author_posts_link] under the title of the posts.

    I looked at the snippets and there is a customize entry Header as you say but in Education Pro theme that appears ABOVE the title of the post.

    I want the [post_author_posts_link] to appear AFTER the title of the post. There are snippets there for removing the title but I don't see how to insert the [post_author_posts_link] after the title

    This is what you have in functions.php between lines 86 - 95

    //* Reposition the entry meta in the entry header
    remove_action( 'genesis_entry_header', 'genesis_post_info', 12 );
    add_action( 'genesis_entry_header', 'genesis_post_info', 5 );
    
    //* Customize the entry meta in the entry header
    add_filter( 'genesis_post_info', 'education_post_info_filter' );
    function education_post_info_filter($post_info) {
    	$post_info = '[post_date]';
    	return $post_info;
    }
    

    Clearly, the [post_author_posts_link] shortcode is missing. What happens if you add it back?

    You can then remove the first 2 lines of PHP to display it below the title.
