How To Add Author Profile After Post in Thesis WordPress Theme
I have already mentioned that Thesis is very easy to customize without any programming knowledge.

function post_footer_author() {
if (is_single())
{ ?>
<div class="postauthor">
<?php echo get_avatar( get_the_author_id() , 100 ); ?>
<h4>Article by <a href="<?php the_author_url(); ?>">
<?php the_author_firstname(); ?> <?php the_author_lastname(); ?></a></h4>
<p><?php the_author_description(); ?></p>
<p class="hlight"><?php the_author_firstname(); ?> has written <span><?php the_author_posts(); ?></span> awesome articles.</p><p>If you like This post, you can follow Technogati on <a href="http://www.twitter.com/technogati"><b>Twitter</b></a>.</p>

Hi Sanjeev,
Thanks for the appreciation and the visit on TG.
Good tutorial. I think this is something more themes should have as standard since it do look really great. Hopefully Thesis will add it as a option in the future, so it will show just by clicking on a button.

Very detailed tut Surender. I will try this in my blog.

I prefer to go for Elegant Themes, they are much cheap and well-designed. Thesis is only there because it can be highly customized. It would rarely take a day to add customize options like that to a theme.
Also, the people who need to edit a theme, know atleast the basics of HTML and PHP.
