Classy WordPress 'Author Bio/Description' Box Widget

We all know that when it comes to web site design, Authors bio boxes with their images and description plays a huge role in the sites/blogs that have multiple authors playing their role in making the blog better and bringing out high quality content to their readers. In today's online community where people tend to related content with the reader behind it, its too important to display an authors profile beside the article so that at least readers would know who they are listening to.

So looking forward to that, we are sharing another great authors profile widget that features a 90x90 image of author with a new style description area that divides its self into to section. Before we move further sharing the widget code, you may get through our previous author profile articles too:


How To Add The Author Box?

Step #1 


Go to Blogger Template >> Edit HTML and backup your template. Find the following code below (Ctrl + F)

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

Once you've found the above code line, simple paste the following code below with authors image link, his name and description edited. (as shown in the step 2.)


<div id="author-info">
                <div id="author-image">
                    <img width="90" height="90" class="avatar avatar-80 photo" src="AUTHOR IMAGE LINK" alt="">                </div>
                <div id="author-bio">
                    <p id="author-name">by <strong>AUTHOR NAME</strong></p>
                    <div id="author-desc"><p>AUTHOR DESCRIPTION</p></div>
                </div>
<span class="last-child" style=" line-height:0px; font-size:8px; font-weight:bold; margin-left:55px;
  "><a style="color:#D3D3D3;" href="http://www.bloggingehow.com">Widgets</a></span>
            </div>
