Description
Loading /author/username will return a 404 if author has no posts. It is desirable to show something, in my case, author profiles and let author.php decide what to do if the author has 0 posts.
Rewrote handle_404() to...
if ( (0 == count($wp_query->posts)) && (!isset($wp_query->query_varscat?) $wp_query->query_varscat?== 0) && (!isset($wp_query->query_varsauthor?) $wp_query->query_varsauthor? == 0) && !is_404() && !is_search() && ( $this->did_permalink (!empty($_SERVERQUERY_STRING?) && (false === strpos($_SERVERREQUEST_URI?, '?'))) ) ) {
Note this includes patches from Trac #1969 (Check for category and author page existence) and also solves final comment by _ck_.
