Author Box (Divi)
An author box for Divi 5 that belongs in a Theme Builder post template: set to “Current”, it shows each post’s author (or the author archive’s), and while the template is being edited it previews the latest post’s author. It can also show a user you pick. Each box is labelled with its settings.
