    Under  Users > My Name, I have it set to display as my full name. However, on my site it is linking to author/admin/

     

    Any suggestions on how to fix this? I'm running Yoast SEO, but I don't think it's making the change.

     

    Recently moved back from Thesis and noticed a 404 happening with my name as a result of the switch to Genesis.

     

    Thanks in advance.

    In the dropdown on your User Profile - did you select to pull your full name instead of admin? Even though you add your full name, you need to select the name in the dropdown and then save it.

    That's what is odd. I have Display Name Publicly: My Full Name. The site shows my name, but the link is to my username, which is admin.

    Can you post a link to your website so I can take a look?

    Oh, that's an internal WordPress function. I Googled it and found several ways to change that. Read them and select what you think is the best solution for yourself.
