@stephane.falzon You can just add another line that says:$contactmethods['skype'] = ‘Skype’;

Hi, first of all really thanx for your help!

Secondly, I try to add more field like ‘skype ID’ but I can’t add another.

I had to change one of the two field.

How I can do?

Thx

$contactmethods['keyword_usr'] = 'Keyword';

return $contactmethods;

seems it filtered out the code:

echo the_author_meta(‘twitter’);

remember, this code needs to be enclosed in:

just remove the spaces between .

I don’t know how to post the code properly…

Here is the code I used to properly retrieve and post the authors Twitter account:

I was having difficulty with the other method used in the post…ie, nothing was returned…the bit of code I included above did the trick.

NOTE: I simply list the twitter account as “@WHATEVERYOURTWITTERNAMEIS” in the user/author setup page in WP…and then I incorporated the Twitter @anywhere hovercard to get an awesome effect. I use it in all of my Author Bio boxes for each post.
