How to add badge title to article author

Hi Erin, 

This no longer requires custom code, and has been built in to the product for Gather Pro.  

You can simply create a title badge and apply it to the user's Help Center profile. It will show up anywhere they post or comment or on any articles they write across both the knowledge base and the community.

Hi Nicole,

Thank you for your response. Is that the case if we have a custom theme? I thought everything I read said that we have to edit the page templates when using a custom theme because it only works automatically if you are on the original Copenhagen and not a custom theme. I followed the instructions on this article, but it only includes how to do this for Community lists and post pages, but not for article pages. https://support.zendesk.com/hc/en-us/articles/4408832681626-Help-center-templating-cookbook#topic_tg5_cqx_xmb.

Thanks,

Erin

Hey Erin, thanks for clarifying. It depends how the custom theme is written; for example this community is a custom theme, but the badging functionality still works using the in-product capability for badges. 

Let me ask some folks who have more expertise in custom code and see if I can get a better answer for you. :)
