I’m trying to create an Individual Entry Archive using the smarty plugin. I have the smarty directory configured correctly as I was able to run the test script.
When I create and rebuild the template, I get the following error. I've looked for resolution all over the board and I can't find the solution. Any help would be sincerely appreciated!
Error Message:
Build error in template 'Author Archive': Error in <MTEntries> tag: No such author '`$smarty.request.author`'
Here’s the Code for the Author Template:
