Issue status update for http://drupal.org/node/20115 Project: Drupal Version: cvs Component: user.module Category: feature requests Priority: normal Assigned to: Anonymous Reported by: nedjo Updated by: nedjo Status: patch Attachment: http://drupal.org/files/issues/user_content_author_block.patch (2.62 KB) It would be nice to have a quick way to display information about page author/posters. The attached patch creates a new 'Author info' block for the user module, which (if enabled) displays only when a node is being viewed, showing the user name (as block title), picture, signature, a list of up to four recent posts (plus 'more' link, if tracker module is enabled, and user has posted more than four times) and link to contact author (if contact module is enabled and user is set to accept contacts). The general idea: get a feel for the author at a glance, without having to load the full user page. nedjo
