Hello Sanya,

Sorry for taking so long to reply.

You can actually add it to pages. Instead of using if (is_single()) at the start of the code, you would use if (is_page())

The code in the tutorial is only for posts.

Glad it helped Lee.

For contributing authors’ images to be shown, they will need to create a gravatar account at gravatar.com and ensure that they complete their author bio information in the wordpress dashboard with the same e-mail. Once this is done their image will be automatically shown.

Let me know if this helps.

This is exactly what I was looking for. I just have one question for you…for contributing authors, how do I upload their picture to be shown?
