Author Details
This plugin shows user details and other articles based on the creator of the current article. It's using a template based approach.
Instructions
This plugin shows its output using template files. These files should be put into plugins/content/authordetails/layouts/ folder. By default, there are 2 templates for article list and 1 template for author information. Naming convention is article_tmplname.php and information_tmplname.php. After putting these files in that folder, you can choose the template to use in plugin parameters. This makes customization easier.
There are some parameters that may need explanation. "Show According To Author Name" looks for author name in the article parameters and if it's on shows the plugin. This is good if you want to hide the plugin output from particular pages and don't want to deal with allowed article parameter.

Çok güzel bir şey bu gerçekten. Yalnız bunun botlu modülünü de istiyoruz. Yani çıkacağı yeri kendimiz belirlememiz çok daha güzel olur. teşekkürler.
Tam aradığım şeyi yapmışsın Ercan. Fikrine sağlık. Yazarlar modülünde yazarlarla ilgili kısa HTML açıklama ve köşenin adını da koymak istiyorum. Senden ses çıkmazsa ben deneyeceğim yapmayı. İnşallah yapabilirim... Kolay gelsin...
@Enes Teşekkürler. Değişik bir mantık da olsa yapılamaz bir şey değil. Umarım ileride bakacak vaktim olur. @Hakan Kevine Devine tarafından hazırlanan UserMeta adlı eklenti ile yazarlara yeni alanlar ekleyip bunları da görünüm dosyasını kullanarak gösterebilirsiniz.
Ercan çok teşekkür ederim. Deneyeceğim. Siteni ve yazılan yorumları ve yeni versiyonları takip ediyroum. Tekrar fikrine sağlık.
Tekrar Merhaba Ercan, Kevin Devine'a ait UserMeta adlı eklentiyi bulamadım. Kendisinin hazırladığı eklentilere de baktım, ancak hiçbiri belirttiğin işi yapar gibi görünmedi. Bu konuda senden tekrar destek rica edebilir miyim? Teşekkürler, iyi çalışmalar.
Buradan ulaşabilirsiniz: http://joomlacode.org/gf/project/usermeta/
Tekrar Merhaba Ercan. Aslında önerin harikaydı ancak anladığım kadarıyla ben Joomla 1.5.4 kullandığım için (User meta versiyonu 1.5.2) tabloyu da yarattığım halde bende extra alan database'e kayıt yapamadı. Bu konuda bana ücretiyle yardımcı olmayı düşünür müsün? Database'e 2 kaydı girmek ve o kaydı (köşenin başlığı ve yazarı tanıtan kısa bir yazıyı) köşe yazılarının başında göstermek kadar basit bir talebim var. E-mailime yanıt yazabilirsin. Teşekkürler, Hakan
@Hakan E-mailinize cevap verdim.
It's really cool component but I found one problem. If you have multi page article all author informations are printed on every page and it doesn't look professional. If you can fix that and author details and other publications will display only on last page it will be great.
Hi, it worked ok. Now, only one point is, would be easier if we had an option (in the plugin configuration) to disable the collapsed function, instead of having to edit the code. One question: will Google robots follow the links inside the plugin ? Tks. Great plugin.
Work good for one of my site. But one request feature: 1. If it is possible please add Author alias.
It seems like an excellent idea but I could not make it work on my Joomla 1.5. I have no idea what happens.
Hi, Can you help with this improvement: I would like to insert your plugin in another registerEvent (preparecontent for example), because I want to include the plugin inside the content, foating right. Could you help me ? Tx
Hi Christophe, I didn't try it but 2 changes should be enough: 1- Change onAfterDisplayContent to onPrepareContent. 2- Find return $output; in this method and instead put this code block: $article->text .= $output; return true That should be enough. HTH. Ercan
Thanks for your great work! And one question: is it possible to add such a feature as replacing author's caption in the blog wiew with a link to the list of other articles published by him, instead of showing it below the article? Thanks in advance!
Merhaba, Eklenti çok güzel, teşekkür ederim. Fakat ne yazık ki ben Türkçeleştiremedim. articles_default.php'deki "Show Other Articles Of This Author" yazısını "Yazarın Diğer Yazıları" şeklinde değiştirdiğim zaman Türkçe karakterler görünmüyor. Yardımcı olabilirseniz çok memnun olurum.
Merhaba, dosyayı utf-8 karakter kodlamasıyla kaydederseniz düzelecektir.
Mesaj kirliliği olmasın diye yazmamayı düşünüyordum ama yanıtınız için teşekkür etmesem de olmaz. Teşekkür ederim...
Nice addition... would be cool to have an option to look for MODIFIED DATE! So, one could show the latest UPDATED articles, too. TIA!!!
ben yukleyemiyorum su hatayi veriyor; Joomla 1.15 var bende; ve oysa xml var. ERROR: Could not find a Joomla! XML setup file in the package.
Hi, Super idea and great layouts Suggestions: Possibility of - language translation (ini)) - to hide "Our valuable member Administrator has been with" - to hide for specific members (ex.:Administrator,..)
Great extensions! Very good! Thanks
Work good for one of my site.
does not work with the component MyBlog 2.0 on J!1.5
i tried first...:)
merhaba ercan bey gerçekten faydalı bir bileşen hazırlamışsınız elinize sağlık fakat ben bu bileşeni sorunsuz olarak siteme yüklememe ve aktif etmeme rağmen localhost ta çalıştırdım ama sitede çalıştıramadım.( joomla 1.5.8 kullanıyorum ) sorun nedir onuda anlayabilmiş değilim yardımcı olabilirsen sevinirim. iyi çalışmalar
bir türlü türkçe çalışmaıyor bende de. sebebi ne olaiblir?
Very good! Thanks! Great extensions!
Excellent solution. 1-2-3 done in 2-3 minutes. Perhaps a future version might include a reader selectable option "show all" articles by author. This would be a big help until Joomla has a decent search feature.
Sir: I'd like some documentation on how to get this extension running correctly. It would seem from your examples I have it installed correctly - but it does NOT produce any results. Is there a manual or ??? Val
Fantastic Module

Its right Joomla installation manual? http://hyves.kokkupanek.eu/pdf/Joomla%20Quick%20Start%201.pdf Hi!
how can i modify the display position of the list of articles. now the plugin is shown under the articles, can i modify it to somewhere else? thx
Hi there, great plugin. Does this plugin create a linking page to authors where you can view the articles. because at the moment you can only see author articles when you are in the article? Thanks
Hello Cemal, This plugin does not support such a feature. For that you need to have a component. Plugins can not create new pages. You might take a look at Joomunity or Community Builder or something like that. Hope that helps Regards Ercan
can we modify the display position of the plugin. now the plugin is shown under the articles, can we modify it to above ? thank you
@edebi, Try changing onAfterDisplayContent to onBeforeDisplayContent in authordetails.php file. That should do it. I will probably make it configurable in the next release.
I was able to recode the plugin to make it embeddable in content with a simple tag like: {authors} It wasn't easy, though! Check out: www.taipanpublishinggroup.com/invest-in-electricity-infrastructure.html Look for "Also By This Author" There is one glitch I'm trying to work around. The plugin uses the Author Alias when that field is populated. I need to recode the plugin so it only uses the author ID. As an aside, I also made a fully embeddable version of Jomcomment.

Ercan harikasın çok güzel bir plugin.Ellerine sağlık.Bu pluginde makale içinde yazar resmi gösterebilme olsa süper olurdu.Demek istediğim http://geminorum.ir/joomla/gavatar.html ama bu senin plugin e mutlaka entegre edilmeli. :) dikkate alırsan çok mutlu olurum teşekkürler..
Hi, i was trying to use this plugin. Work awsome! But the prob its when im try to use another plug that use the user alias then the plugin just disapper, dont show on any page. Sorry my english
This is just what I was looking for! Thanks!!! It works great!
It would be nice to understand HOW to get this to work. I've installed it and SEE nothing to help understand how to get it working. So - I'll assume I missed it. Can you point out the doc's or instructions? D
Hey there, nice plugin... is doing pretty much all that I'm after... BUT... is there any way that articles which have been archived can be included in the listings...?
I enabled the plugin but no link appear on authors names. how i do that? thanks
I installed this plugin and then set the options and activated it. However, nothing seems to happen. In reading the instructions at the top it says to move some layout files to a certain folder. I did and renamed them according to my layout: "articles_js_jamba.php" and "information_js_jamba.php". I'm not sure if this is even needed. What exactly needs to be done? Really looking forward to getting this to work! This is something that has been missing from Joomla for a long time!
Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_STRING, expecting T_OLD_FUNCTION or T_FUNCTION or T_VAR or modules\mod_columnists\helper.php on line 24 yazar modülünü kurdum ekrana yansıtamadım böyle bir hata ile karşılaştım.. yardımcı olabilirmisiniz...
The plugin authorLink of JomSocial and this plugin, have conflicts, can not work together =(. There any solution in the next version to use?
güzel bir eklenti
@edebi, Try changing onAfterDisplayContent to onBeforeDisplayContent in authordetails.php file. That should do it. I will probably make it configurable in the next release. this doesn't work. It still appends the text to the article
Güzel job:-), is there any option for hungarian translation? I wih I could have the text under my articels in my language!
Hi there, it sounds as really nice module. I just miss some additional info. Is it possibe to add a small picture next to the article of every author ? Thank in advace. Guby
Yazarlar köşesinde bulunan yazarları alfabatik olarak listelenmesi ve bu listeden seçilen bir yazarın tüm eski yazılarının listelene bileceği bi eklenti gibi bişe varmıdır????
Hello, Being able to list the other articles by the user, can you display this only on the profile page
Hi! Thank you for this plugin! Can you please do the same thing as a module, eg the Top 10 according to the author many articles.
I did the translation to brazilian portuguese. Where should I send to??
@Menekse, Thank you. I'm not aware of a Hungarian translation. Sorry. @Guby, It's possible but you need to do some work. You need to create additional layouts and add image logic there. check out the instructions. @sewox, Bildiğim bir bileşen yok. @Andrew, What do you mean by profile page? @ThankYouMan, I think there are modules already doing that. check out http://extensions.joomla.org @Fernando, I took your mail (and responded today) Thank you! I'll add it to the next releases.
Lovely plugin and gave me just what I wanted. However, there is a problem with IE7. The list of other articles shows above the "Show other articles......" text. When I click on the line, the contents show properly formatted and below the "Show other articles......" line, as it should. In Firefox it is fine. How do I solve this? (I do not know JS and I am really badly rushed for time!) Please please do help.
Hi, I am using Author Details on my site and I really like it, thank you! I have one problem however. I have it set to only show on some sections. This setting works correct but in the "other articles by other" list it links to all the other articles. Is there any way to exclude some sections from here? One of my authors submits articles but also is responsible for the site blog which will be updated twice a day. This means that her content articles will be lost in that "show other articles" list because there will be so many blog postings listed. I do not mind editing the plugin files if you know of a way to do this. Thanks.
hi this com not work with legasy! i have to more component on my local site to manage my network and when i installed this component not worked until i turned of the legacy plg??

@AJ, I don't think this is possible in the current release. Sorry. @mehdi, I haven't heard any problem with the legacy mode. What's the problem?
iyi bir eklenti.
Nice plugin, but where is the translation for spanish language?, I know that anyone has traslated it
