    Hello
    I've used a snippet at here http://my.studiopress.com/snippets/author-box/ to change the Author box title but there is a problem with that code.

    It will helps us change the Author box title but the author name will disappear. For example, before I modified the Author box title it is: About Tony

    After add the snippet:

    //* Customize the author box title
    add_filter( 'genesis_author_box_title', 'custom_author_box_title' );
    function custom_author_box_title() {
    	return '<strong>About the Author</strong>';
    }

    It will display "About the Author" and the Tony name disappear.

    I also do search on the Internet and many website have same snippet that did not work correct. Please help correct it

    Thanks
