Author Box admin settings

At the admin side of your blog, you will find Author Box settings page. This page is viewable only by admin users. Author box styling settings and user permissions are controlled here

• Choose author box layout (Top, Left, Clean top, Clean left)
• You can toggle the opacity transition between social networks
• Choose content background color, shadow color, tabs color, tabs shadow color, content text color, content links color

Styling settings are global, meaning that the look of author box for every post is defined here. You can select one of four layouts, and choose colors for displaying them. Layouts can have different color options (example: Flat design layouts doesn’t have shadow colors, but have option for selecting tab text color). You can also enable/disable transition effect, which is triggered when tabs are changed.

You can control order in which tabs are displayed, by simply sorting list of available tabs. Again, this setting is global.

Author Box user settings

User settings are located in backend user profile page. Here, every user controls his own settings. For social network widget to be displayed in author box, some kind of identification must be supplied. It can be username, id or profile link. Example is provided for every social network. Also, there are check-boxes for every network. If check-box is not selected, social network widget will not be shown in author box. Additionally, latest posts and user bio can be added to author box. By default, all check-boxes are selected, and text fields are empty.

Author Box post settings

In edit post screen, users can define post settings, which override user settings. Meaning, if you deselected checkbox for showing facebook widget in your profile page, but you check it in edit post screen, facebook widget will be shown in that post. It wouldn’t affect any other posts – facebook widget won’t be visible in them. You can also supply new User Bio for that post only.
