hello there,

i want to deactivate the authors name-link in the blog-preview, where the excerpts are.
i want that the user could see the Name (of the author), but shouldnt can klick on it, to get redirected to the authors page.

is there a possibility to deactivate the link ?

thanks for your answer, jürgen

I don’t recommend this practise. But, if you must.

.fn a {
    cursor: not-allowed;
    pointer-events: none;
}

That’s ugly and not SEO friendly.

Do instead:

function sacar_link_autor( $link ) {

    $link = get_the_author();
    return $link;
}
add_action( 'the_author_posts_link', 'sacar_link_autor' );

Take in mind, you’ll remove all author links in the funtion the_author_posts_link()
