Is there a mod or can someone tell me how to code my authors page so it will show a list of all the articles submitted by that particular author?
Thanks

<tr>
<td class="label">{l}Members Articles{/l}:</td>
<td class="smallDesc" align="left">{$RELATED1}</td>
</tr>
in the author tpl file should show it if using 3.3 IF not let me know and I will add it for you. I have it set for limit of 30 though

Thanks James. My Author tpl did not include that. Could be because I'm using the Professional-extended version and it was maybe left out accidently?? Anyway I've added it per your instructions and al works great now. THANK YOU!
Also - if in the future I want to change the limit from 30 to something else, where would I go about doing that?

in the author.php you will see the related1 query and change the limit from 0,30 to whatever you want say 0, 100 etc etc

Although this is great for showing the list of articles - I ran into a problem because I use the rewrite options.
The links from the authors page leads to incorrect pages such as 'article-1.html' rather than 'article-title.html'.
I'm guessing this has something to do with needing to make some changes in my htaccess file. So I'm off to see if I can find some answers. If by chance anyone reads this and knows of a quick fix, I'd appreciate a point in the right direction.
In the mean time, my research continues....
