Hi,
That is wordpress default function
https://developer.wordpress.org/reference/functions/get_the_author_posts_link/
You can try this code instead.
// Entry Meta
// =============================================================================
if ( ! function_exists( 'x_integrity_entry_meta' ) ) :
function x_integrity_entry_meta() {
//
// Author.
//
if ( function_exists( 'coauthors_posts_links' ) ) {
coauthors_posts_links();
} else {
echo get_the_author_posts_link();
}
//
// Date.
//
$date = sprintf( '<span><time class="entry-date" datetime="%1$s"><i class="x-icon-calendar" data-x-icon=""></i> %2$s</time></span>',
esc_attr( get_the_date( 'c' ) ),
esc_html( get_the_date() )
);
//
// Categories.
//
if ( get_post_type() == 'x-portfolio' ) {
if ( has_term( '', 'portfolio-category', NULL ) ) {
$categories = get_the_terms( get_the_ID(), 'portfolio-category' );
$separator = ', ';
$categories_output = '';
foreach ( $categories as $category ) {
$categories_output .= '<a href="'
. get_term_link( $category->slug, 'portfolio-category' )
. '" title="'
. esc_attr( sprintf( __( "View all posts in: “%s”", '__x__' ), $category->name ) )
. '"><i class="x-icon-bookmark" data-x-icon=""></i> '
. $category->name
. '</a>'
. $separator;
}
$categories_list = sprintf( '<span>%s</span>',
trim( $categories_output, $separator )
);
} else {
$categories_list = '';
}
} else {
$categories = get_the_category();
$separator = ', ';
$categories_output = '';
foreach ( $categories as $category ) {
$categories_output .= '<a href="'
. get_category_link( $category->term_id )
. '" title="'
. esc_attr( sprintf( __( "View all posts in: “%s”", '__x__' ), $category->name ) )
. '"><i class="x-icon-bookmark" data-x-icon=""></i> '
. $category->name
. '</a>'
. $separator;
}
$categories_list = sprintf( '<span>%s</span>',
trim( $categories_output, $separator )
);
}
//
// Comments link.
//
if ( comments_open() ) {
$title = apply_filters( 'x_entry_meta_comments_title', get_the_title() );
$link = apply_filters( 'x_entry_meta_comments_link', get_comments_link() );
$number = apply_filters( 'x_entry_meta_comments_number', get_comments_number() );
$text = ( 0 === $number ) ? 'Leave a Comment' : sprintf( _n( '%s Comment', '%s Comments', $number, '__x__' ), $number );
$comments = sprintf( '<span><a href="%1$s" title="%2$s" class="meta-comments"><i class="x-icon-comments" data-x-icon=""></i> %3$s</a></span>',
esc_url( $link ),
esc_attr( sprintf( __( 'Leave a comment on: “%s”', '__x__' ), $title ) ),
$text
);
} else {
$comments = '';
}
//
// Output.
//
if ( x_does_not_need_entry_meta() ) {
return;
} else {
printf( '<p class="p-meta">%1$s%2$s%3$s%4$s</p>',
$author,
$date,
$categories_list,
$comments
);
}
}
endif;
Hope that helps.
