There is s a discrepancy in how the Author name is displayed between the blog-grid view and single posts.

In blog-grid view, it shows the author’s name only.

In single post view, it shows “By author_name”.

Also when using an avatar plugin like WP User Avatar the avatar is shown in blog/grid view but not on the single post view.

I have found omissions of escape functions in the code around the author display in the two templates:
- templates/grid/blog-grid.php
- templates/single/post-content.php

On the blog front page, where most recent posts are shown:

It shows the author avatar and author name only.

After clicking “Read More” and displaying a single post:

It does not show the author avatar but shows the word “By” then then author name.

That’s because there are coding differences in that block :

blog-grid.php

missing esc_html_e(‘By’, ‘ashe’)

single-post.php

missing get_avatar() etc.
