How to display the Author tab in Kind template articles?

Asked by Carlos Arango 4 months ago Last activity 4 months ago

Template: Kind
How do you make the Author tab appear in articles (admin) using the Kind template by JoomShaper?

In the Kind template Quickstart Pack, the Author tab is available when editing articles in the Joomla administrator panel. However, in a new project created from scratch using the same template, the Author tab does not appear.

Is there any specific setting, extension, or configuration included in the Quickstart Pack that enables the Author tab? How can I make it appear in a fresh Joomla installation using the Kind template?

Hi,

Thank you for reaching out, and sorry for the inconvenience.

The Author information in the Kind Quickstart is not provided by any additional extension. It is configured using Joomla's built-in Custom Fields feature.

If you have the Quickstart installation available, please check Content → Field Groups and Content → Fields. You should find the Author-related field group and custom fields configured there.

For reference, please see this screenshot:

You can replicate the same setup on your fresh Joomla installation by creating the corresponding Field Group and Custom Fields and then assigning them to your articles.

Best regards
