Changing post author link

    Hello,

    I am having trouble changing the link associated with the author name that shows up on my posts.

    Right now my author name links to my post archives. I would like it to link to my About page.

    Could someone please explain how I can change the URL? The site is a single-author blog and it would make more sense to simply link my name to the about page.

    My website is http://www.jacobmorgan.net and I am using the Portfolio + theme.

    Thank you,
    Jacob Morgan

    The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

    I’m afraid you’re in the wrong forum. This support forum is only for free WordPress.com blogs. You appear to have a self-hosted WordPress.ORG install. WordPress.com and WordPress.org are completely separate and different: http://en.support.wordpress.com/com-vs-org/

    Please visit the WordPress.org support forum for assistance as we won’t be able to help you here: http://wordpress.org/support/ If you don’t already have a username on that forum, click the register button in the upper right corner so you can post in that forum.
