Easy Author Box
Author Box Plugin for Joomla
Readers trust articles more when they can see who wrote them. Easy Author Box adds a clean byline panel with photo, role, bio, and social links, plus optional Person JSON-LD for search engines.
This demo article is written by a Joomla user who has an Author profile in the plugin settings. Scroll to the end of the article (or look for the box when a shortcode is used) to see the layout for this tab.
Why author boxes convert
A clear author panel builds credibility on blogs, documentation hubs, and agency sites. Visitors can follow the writer, open a portfolio, or jump to related social profiles without leaving the page context.
How setup works
Enable Content - Easy Author Box, then open the Authors tab and add a profile for each Joomla user who publishes articles. Match the profile to the article Created by user. Photo, role, bio, and social URLs enrich the box beyond the plain account name.
Layouts and themes
Choose Card, Horizontal, Compact, Minimal, or Stacked layouts, then pair with Classic, Soft, Bold, Minimal, or Glass themes. Appearance colours keep the panel on brand without custom CSS.
Person JSON-LD
Optional schema.org Person markup can include name, job title, image, email, website, and sameAs social URLs. Leave it off unless you want structured author data on that page.
