Bludit CMS plugin that provides an author bio for posts, pages, and sidebar. Also sidebar widgets for a users list and for more posts by the page author.
The plugin was designed to augment the Configure 8 theme but can be used with other themes. However, user profile pages will likely not work without modifications to the theme which provide a page template specific to users. A user profile page does not instantiate the Page class to access it's methods (e.g. No cover image, no content).
The active theme must have the siteSidebar hook for sidebar widgets to display.
