Astra theme: The last space you may have noticed changes on the iGuRu.gr page. Yes, that's right, because we changed the theme. We used to use Genesis with a Custom child, and now we use Astra, with a custom child as well.
We chose the Astra theme because it is light, fast with many customization options, but also because it is SEO friendly. As far as customization is concerned, we changed his lights, with additional php and css code to bring it more or less to the look of the old Genesis theme.
One of the changes we made to Astra as soon as we tried it for the first time was to unlink the user from the posts, as we consider it an additional risk in better safety.
What I mean:
Almost all WordPress themes have a link to the author of each post. This link leads to a page with all the articles of the author. But it displays the login name publicly.
for example
https://iguru.gr/author/to_onoma_syndesis/
Why is it a risk? All WordPress websites have one default login page, which if you know it you can easily implement attacks brute force. This particular link makes things easier for the hacker as it gives him the columnist's login name on the plate. So it should only look for the password.
So because we have as a starting point to make things a little more difficult for any would-be hacker in all our themes we disable this link.
Let's see how it is done in Astra.
Add the following code to the functions.php of the child you are using:
add_filter ('astra_post_author_output', 'call_back'); function call_back () author $ author_info_array = sprintf (' 'posted-by vcard author',)); echo '>'; // Translators: Author Name. ?> 'url fn n',)); ?>> 'author-name',)); ?>>', sprintf (' ', esc_html __ (' About The Author ',' astra-addon '), get_avatar (get_the_author_meta (' email '), 100),' ', esc_html (get_the_author ()), wp_kses_post (get_the_author_meta (' description ')), astra_attr ('author-url-info', array ('class' =>' ',)), astra_attr (' author-name-info ', array (' class' => '',))), astra_attr ('author -item-info ', array (' class' => '',)), astra_attr ('author-desc-info', array ('class' =>' ',))); return $ author_info_array; } add_filter ('astra_post_author', 'author_call_back', 15); function author_call_back () {ob_start (); echo '
