Google Scholar link not created in publications page

[kmundnic]

The file _pages/publications.md contains the following line:

{% if author.googlescholar %}
  You can also find my articles on <u><a href="{{author.googlescholar}}">my Google Scholar profile</a>.</u>
{% endif %}

However, this is not rendered in the publications page, although googlescholar is set in _config.yml and rendered correctly in the sidebar.

I encountered the same issue, turns out it's fixed by #545: what you configure in _config.yml is accessed by the variable site.author.

So that you know why it was rendered correctly in the sidebar, it's because of this line in author-profile.html, as we enter the else statement because no page author has been defined.

Thank you @TLouf. I'll close the issue, since it is fixed by #545.
