Since CP5 came onto the scene a few years back, one of the most common complaints about it has been its lack of article author pages like those found on CP4 systems. Well, it's about time we changed that.

Now, to view a list of articles by any one author simply click on their byline. This will take you to a list of the 25 most recent articles by that author. Still want more? To create custom author bio pages that are linked together just create a unique article page for each author you with to be profiled. Here's how to do it:

  1. Create an article.
  2. Upload your author photo.
  3. Name your article after the author being profiled and input a bio in the body.
  4. Create a dedicated staff bio subpage on your website.
  5. Copy and paste your finished staffer bios into an article list.

If this still isn't what you are looking for, the HTML element in CP5 gives you the freedom to code your bio page however you wish. An example of this can be fou right on Collegepublisher.com @ http://www.collegepublisher.com/about-us.
