I currently use the genesis framework gravatar based user profile author box, both on my main sidebar and after each post. I read here I can use a block based alternative ( tho not for the sidebars) https://feastdesignco.com/user-profile-block/
As anyone else gone for this approach or can suggest alternatives?
Thanks,for replying to my post.
1) My sidebar widget is currently the Gravatar based Genesis User Profile widget. If this must be replaced (as suggested in the link). I don't think I can currently use blocks in widget areas so will this html with the profile image loaded from the media library, or are there any good widgets to do this.
2) You are right, the author box is a check box option in my user settings - I copied the text from the above profile widget which is why I was a bit confused. Do I replace with a custom: block and, or plugin/widget. Alternatively, do I simply change the currently styles?
For 2) I notice you have a post on this https://wpsites.net/web-design/style-author-box-in-genesis-beginners-guide/
You could style it using CSS or add your own HTML to a custom block.
That tutorial is about 7 years old so i'm not sure it will work anymore.
