How to create a author blog page?
Shopify does not support that which is strange because they have the option to write blogs.
In order to write valuable blogs an author blog page is necessary.
Topic summary
Shopify’s blog feature lacks a native author-specific page, which some consider essential for showcasing writers and organizing posts by author. The current limitation: no built-in way to create an “author page” that lists an author’s articles and profile.
Proposed workaround:
- Tag blog articles with author names.
- Use theme code customizations to make the displayed author name a clickable link.
- Redesign a page/template to emulate an author profile and post archive.
Requests and sentiment:
- A call for a standard, reusable customization code, suggesting widespread need.
- Others report similar struggles and are awaiting an official decision or feature from Shopify.
Status:
- No official feature or standardized code was provided in the thread.
- Discussion remains open with a workaround suggested, but the need for a native solution is unresolved.

@Wesley9 You can tag your articles with author names and with some code customizations author name can be replaced with a clickable link. The page can be redesigned to look like an author page.
Is there a standard customizations code for this topic. Because i can imagine that more people struggle with this.
