K2 | The powerful content extension for Joomla! developed by JoomlaWorks

Hi I am working on styling my tag page and having trouble adding the author to the tag page.

Here is the code that I am using:



Any suggestions on how to display the author name and link on a Tag page?

Hello, Steven.

Unfortunately, it is not possible without K2 core modifications, because author block enabled in specific K2 sections.

You can check it in components\com_k2\models\item.php

Find "//Author" at line ~228 and condition for generate author block, you can add " || $task == 'tag'" for enable it at tag page.

THANK YOU! This should be on top of the K2 forum! Or "Andrey Miasoedov" should get a price from K2 for openly publishing a suggestion on how to fix this issue.

The ONE (of a couple of) place(s) (on a site with more than one publisher) where it is imperative that you can display the author it isn't possible by default?!

Don't get me wrong, I love K2 and everything about it (almost, apparently hehe), but this feels more like an oversight

Anyway, thank you again for this working solution.

To any K2 dev team member reading this... Please consider adding the option of displaying the author on ANY and ALL possible pages where author and content go hand in hand and thank you as well for a superior CMS add on (that should be a part of Joomla core )

Hi Andrey, Thanks for the reply and the answer

Do you think there is any chance that this could get worked into the K2 core?

I really try to avoid changing any K2 core files.



Thanks! -- Steven
