0 How To Add Author Box In Blogger

SOCIALIZE IT →
Author Box for Blogger
Are you looking for an attractive author bio widget? Then today, you are at right place. It is quite common that every reader will be eager to know the man behind an article if it is really interesting. So the first thing any reader will do after reading such a wonderful article, is scrolling throughout the blog to find the author. I know that an author bio below articles is very common for every blogger. But today in this article I am going to guide you to create a wonderful author widget by adding social media button (connection) along with it. This will help a reader to make a connection with the writer. It will not only help the authors  to make a connection with the reader, but it also will help to make the other popular and he/she may even get an opportunity to write for others. For example, suppose a professional blogger who is looking for a writer for his blog, by chance he landed on your blog and impressed with the writing skills. Then, this widget will help him contact the author on the go. Because this author bio widget consisting various social media buttons will help him contact you via his favorite social media by clicking on your profile.
So, what are you waiting for? Let's scroll down and check out how to add an author bio widget in Blogger.

;)

Step 1: Find the code


The best place to add an author bio widget is below the article that the author had written. So, first of all, go to Blogger dashboard >> Template >> Edit HTML and find below HTML code (to find code, just click anywhere on the HTML editor and press ctrl+f).

<div class='post-footer-line post-footer-line-1'>

Click Edit Button 


The code

Remember, the code that I have mentioned earlier is repeated two times in your template. So find the code (<div class='post-footer-line post-footer-line-1'>) which is seen below this code - <div class='post-footer'>

Step 2: Place the code


Now you need to the place the following code below the code that I have mentioned earlier. 

<div class='ts-fab-wrapper ts-fab-icons-text' id='ts-fab-below-10105'><ul class='ts-fab-list'><li class='ts-fab-bio-link active'><a href='#ts-fab-bio-below-10105'>About</a></li><li class='ts-fab-twitter-link'><a href='#ts-fab-twitter-below-10105'>Twitter</a></li><li class='ts-fab-facebook-link'><a href='#ts-fab-facebook-below-10105'>Facebook</a></li><li class='ts-fab-googleplus-link'><a href='#ts-fab-googleplus-below-10105'>Google+</a></li></ul>

Step 3: Place the script


Now search for this code </head> and place the following script above it.

<script type="text/javascript">
/*<![CDATA[*/
jQuery(document).ready(function(a){a(".ts-fab-tabs > div").hide();a(".ts-fab-tabs > div:first-child").show();a(".ts-fab-list li:first-child").addClass("active");a(".ts-fab-list li a").click(function(){a(this).closest(".ts-fab-wrapper").find("li").removeClass("active");a(this).parent().addClass("active");var b=a(this).attr("href");if(b.indexOf("#")!=-1){currentTabExp=b.split("#");b="#"+currentTabExp[1]}a(this).closest(".ts-fab-wrapper").find(".ts-fab-tabs > div").hide();a(b).show();return false})});
/*]]>*/
</script>
<script type="text/javascript">
/*<![CDATA[*/
// Twitter
(function(a,b,c){var d=a.getElementsByTagName(b)[0];if(!a.getElementById(c)){a=a.createElement(b);a.id=c;a.src="//platform.twitter.com/widgets.js";d.parentNode.insertBefore(a,d)}})(document,"script","twitter-wjs");
// Google + (plus)
(function(){var a=document.createElement("script");a.type="text/javascript";a.async=true;a.src="https://apis.google.com/js/plusone.js";var b=document.getElementsByTagName("script")[0];b.parentNode.insertBefore(a,b)})();
/*]]>*/
</script>

Step 3: Place the script


Now search for this code </head> and place the following script above it.

<script type="text/javascript">
/*<![CDATA[*/
jQuery(document).ready(function(a){a(".ts-fab-tabs > div").hide();a(".ts-fab-tabs > div:first-child").show();a(".ts-fab-list li:first-child").addClass("active");a(".ts-fab-list li a").click(function(){a(this).closest(".ts-fab-wrapper").find("li").removeClass("active");a(this).parent().addClass("active");var b=a(this).attr("href");if(b.indexOf("#")!=-1){currentTabExp=b.split("#");b="#"+currentTabExp[1]}a(this).closest(".ts-fab-wrapper").find(".ts-fab-tabs > div").hide();a(b).show();return false})});
/*]]>*/
</script>
<script type="text/javascript">
/*<![CDATA[*/
// Twitter
(function(a,b,c){var d=a.getElementsByTagName(b)[0];if(!a.getElementById(c)){a=a.createElement(b);a.id=c;a.src="//platform.twitter.com/widgets.js";d.parentNode.insertBefore(a,d)}})(document,"script","twitter-wjs");
// Google + (plus)
(function(){var a=document.createElement("script");a.type="text/javascript";a.async=true;a.src="https://apis.google.com/js/plusone.js";var b=document.getElementsByTagName("script")[0];b.parentNode.insertBefore(a,b)})();
/*]]>*/
</script>

Customization


Once you have placed the code that I have mentioned in step 2, replace the highlighted things such as author image url, author social profiles ID link and author name with your own and save template. That's it!
