According to wordpress documentation, the lookup order for an author archive page would detect author.php before archive.php. However, if I create an author.php page in my child template it isn’t called. What would be the proper way to modify or add template within child themes? how do I call for author templates in general?

I have some custom elements hooking into author pages, but need to modify the core template separate from archive.php.

The goal here being to ensure authors still have a page even if they don’t have any articles published to their name. Currently the archive.php requires posts assigned to the archive to display it.
