<p>“Tessa Authorship” allows to set and handle authorship and relations with every WordPress content that exists on your site. This allows you to present works by other people, think of an online gallery, for instance. You know best, where Tessa Authorship could help you with your content, once you grasped the idea behind. Tessa Authorship offers a lot for your imagination. You may use it in many other context not related to mere authorship reflection.</p>
<p>“Tessa Authorship” is a spin-off from the development and design work related with the Tessa theme but does not depend on it. Tessa is a gallery, exposition and portfolio theme which you can see in action on <a href="http://takebarcelona.com" rel="nofollow ugc">TakeBarcelona</a>. This will be the home for the plugin as well.</p>
<p>“Tessa Authorship” relates authorship information back and forth, allowing to show authorship information on entries of all kind of post types, whereas the related author’s entry allows you to show posts that relate with the author.</p>
<p>Themes may incorporate template files for the authorship post-type, e.g. archive-authorship.php, single-authorship.php and content-authorship.php if desired. The look and feel of the output in widgets and content is all up to you via css or by manipulating the results via the implemented filters.</p>
<p>“Tessa Authorship” offers a second thumbnail on the authorship custom post-type to add the author’s image as well as a second featured image for all activated post-types. You have to enable this functionality explicitly.</p>
<p>Interaction with “Tessa Authorship” to establish relations can be enabled on a per post-type basis in the settings section.</p>
<p>A whole lot of code used in “Tessa Authorship” is based on a combination, revision, rewrite and adaptation of two great WordPress plugins: “WooThemes Testimonials” and “BAW Manual Related Posts”. Many thanks. The original authors may find improvements as well as deteriorations of their code like walkers, multiple choices in the widget for categories and tags, etc.</p>
<p>Nevertheless: “Tessa Authorship” is unique. For this reason you may use both, “WooThemes Testimonials” as well as “BAW Manual Related Posts” together with “Tessa Authorship” to enhance your WordPress installation.</p>
<p>“Tessa Authorship” comes bundled with the “Multiple Posts Thumbnails” class and uses it without activating it as a plugin. If it detects the plugin, it will fallback gracefully and use the plugin instead of the bundled class.</p>
<p>“Tessa Authorship” reflects on fusion, collaboration, honesty, interaction, teamwork and a lot of more things not to mention here. “Tessa Authorship” is a product arriving to you from Barcelona, Catalonia aka Spain. Give it a try and spread the word.</p>
<p>“Tessa Authorship” includes translations for German and Spanish.</p>
<p>And last but not least: You can help to further develop and maintain Tessa Authorship with your donation.</p>
<h3>Usage</h3>
<h4>The easy way</h4>
<ol>
<li>Select the post types you want to support for relationsships with authorship entries, e.g. Posts, Pages.</li>
<li>Activate Authorship Thumbnail support if necessary.</li>
<li>Activate “the_content”-filter.</li>
<li>Activate “Show Email Form”.</li>
<li>Optionally activate also “Use packaged social icons” or “Use packaged css for genericons font”. You cannot activate both and “Use packaged social icons” overwrites the “Use packadged css for genericons font” option. </li>
<li>To display the social information out of the box on authorship post-type pages on top of the content, activate also “Add social author info”.</li>
</ol>
<h4>The hard way</h4>
<p>Bellow you find more advanced integration posibilities. For security and to avoid spam, if you enable “Show Email Form”, you should try to configure the reCaptcha service as explained in “Private Email Messages”.</p>
<h4>Private Email Messages</h4>
<p>From version 0.6.0 onwards you can enable private messaging for authors. This function is available after you decide not to publish emails in the settings section.<br />
The private messaging system includes support for the recaptcha service to make private message handling more secure and to avoid spam. Instructions to enable your wordpress instance for recaptcha:</p>
<ol>
<li>Apply for a reCaptcha account on: <a href="http://www.google.com/recaptcha" rel="nofollow ugc">Google Recaptcha</a> </li>
<li>Follow instructions and configure the recaptcha service to support your website</li>
<li>Place the private and public keys in wp-config.php file</li>
</ol>
<p>Example:<br />
    /*reCaptcha Service */<br />
    define( ‘RECAPTCHA_PUBLIC_KEY’, ‘your-public-key’ );<br />
    define( ‘RECAPTCHA_PRIVATE_KEY’, ‘your-private-key’ );</p>
<ol>
<li>You’re done. “Tessa Authorship” will use reCaptcha service for additional security to handle private email messages.</li>
</ol>
<h4>Authorship Post Type Entries</h4>
<p>For authorship post type pages: Posts of type authorship are now overloaded with the custom field data and the internal image if set via a second thumbnail. You will also find attached to the post object a prepared social links object<br />
You can fetch this data directly within your templates by $post->image or $post->social_links, always for the authorship post-type. If you like to use this in standard templates you can check with isset($post->image) if the value exists, which allows you to use your standard template files to reflect entries of type authorship.<br />
For the predefined fields you can use one of the following: $post->headline, $post->location, $post->birthyear, $post->email_link, $post->twitter_link, $post->facebook_link, $post->linkedin_link, $post->vimeo_link, $post->googleplus_link, $post->youtube_link, $post->soundcloud_link, $post->icomposistions_link, $post->pinterest_link, $post->digg_link, $post->blog_link, $post->web_url.</p>
<p>If you have modified the fields using the filter tessa_authorship_custom_field_settings you have to use your keys to access the data in the post object. For instance, if you defined a field for stumbleUpon you will use a key like “stumbleupon_link” and hence you can retrieve the field data with $post->stumbleupon_link.</p>
<p>Sample Code to display post meta of an authorship entry in content.php or content-authorship.php in your template:</p>
<pre><code><?php
    if ( isset($post->location) && $post->location != '' && isset($post->birthyear) && $post->birthyear != '' ) :
        echo '<div class="locationandyear">' . $post->location . ', ', $post->birthyear . '</div>';
    elseif ( isset($post->location) && $post->location != '' ) :
        echo '<div class="locationandyear">' . $post->location . '</div>';
    elseif ( isset($post->birthyear) && $post->birthyear != '' ) :
        echo '<div class="locationandyear">' . $post->birthyear . '</div>';                 
    endif;
    if ( isset($post->headline) && $post->headline != '' ) :
        echo '<div class="headline">' . $post->headline . '</div>';
    endif;
    if ( isset($post->social_links) && is_array($post->social_links) && count($post->social_links) > 0 ) :
        echo '<div class="social"><ul class="social-links clear">' . implode('', $post->social_links) . '</ul></div>';
    endif;
?>
</code></pre>
<p>(Note: $post->social-links is an array of links wrapped into li markup tags!)</p>
<h4>Related Authors References / Related Content References</h4>
<p>Lists for related authors on content pages and related posts on author pages can be shown automatically by activating the content filter in the settings page. If you don’t want to add this automaticaly you can add related posts or authors manually using the following code:</p>
<pre><code><?php do_action( 'tessa_authorship' ); ?>
</code></pre>
<p>To add arguments to this, please use any of the following arguments, using the syntax provided below:</p>
<ul>
<li>‘limit’ => 5 (the maximum number of items to display)</li>
<li>‘per_row’ => 3 (when creating rows, how many items display in a single row?)</li>
<li>‘orderby’ => ‘menu_order’ (how to order the items – accepts all default WordPress ordering options)</li>
<li>‘order’ => ‘DESC’ (the order direction)</li>
<li>‘id’ => 0 (display a specific item)</li>
<li>‘authorship’ => true (whether to display authorship of a post-type or to display works (post-types) of the author on the author’s page)</li>
<li>‘post-type’ => ” (only if authorship is set to false, post-type will accept post-types as array or, with shortcode, a comma-separated list of post-types)</li>
<li>‘strict’ => true (whether to restrict display of authorships and related works bound to settings for post_id or to display lists of works or authors)</li>

<li>‘display_excerpt => false (whether or not to display excerpt or till more tag in content)</li>
<li>‘echo’ => true (whether to display or return the data – useful with the template tag)</li>
<li>‘size’ => ‘authorship-tas-thumbnail’ (defaults to this, but you can specify any image size identifier or put an integer value for the width of the image, the height will be set proportionally. Dimension for the default image size added by Tessa Authorship can be configured on the settings page for both width and height.)</li>
<li>‘title’ => ” (an optional title)</li>
<li>‘before’ => ‘<div class=”widget widget_tessa_authorship”>’ (the starting HTML, wrapping the testimonials)</li>
<li>‘after’ => ‘</div>’ (the ending HTML, wrapping the testimonials)</li>

<li>‘category’ => 0 (the ID/slug of the category to filter by)</li>
<li>‘tags’ => 0 (the ID/slug of the tag to filter by. If categories and tags are specified the results will be based on logical OR between tags and categories)</li>
</ul>
<p>The various options for the “orderby” parameter are:</p>
<ul>
<li>‘none’</li>
<li>‘ID’</li>
<li>‘title’</li>
<li>‘date’</li>
<li>

<h3>Usage Examples</h3>
<p>Adjusting the limit and image dimension, using the arguments in the three possible methods:</p>
<p>do_action() call:</p>
<pre><code><?php do_action( 'tessa_authorship', array( 'limit' => 10, 'size' => 100 ) ); ?>
</code></pre>
<p>tessa_authorship() template tag:</p>
<pre><code><?php tessa_authorship( array( 'limit' => 10, 'size' => 100 ) ); ?>
</code></pre>
<p>[tessa_authorship] shortcode:</p>
<pre><code>[tessa_authorship limit="10" size="100"]
</code></pre>

<h3>Dependencies</h3>
<p>“Tessa Authorship” does not depend on third party plugins. Nevertheless you may improve experience by using the bundled version of “Multiple Post Thumbnails”. This is especially useful to establish a second post thumbnail for post-types you enabled for “Tessa Authorship” as the default featured image of a post or page may not be the best used as an avatar representation for the related post item. It may even have a purpose, different use assigned, e.g. used as the background for that content in your theme, etc.</p>
