Conversion Uppercase in .liquid – Shopify

I want to put a capital letter at the beginning of each word in the variable {{ article.author }} thanks to the script at the bottom of the page which works because I am fetching the variable with capital letters in the console.

enter image description here

But I don’t poorly understand the variable is displayed in uppercase on the site.

Name of author in uppercase

For CSS : enter image description here

Do you have an idea ?

    You never update the actual element contents:

    <script>
var span = document.getElementById("blog_author").innerText.toLowerCase().replace(/b(w)/g, x => x.toUpperCase());
  console.log(span);
</script>

    The code above takes the contents of #blog_author. The text (not the element) is then modified and stored in the span variable, but the text contents of #blog_author is never updated.

    To solve this issue you should reassign the text to the element.

    <script>
const elmBlogAuthor = document.getElementById("blogAuthor");
const oldName = elmBlogAuthor.innerText;
const newName = oldName.toLowerCase().replace(/bw/g, chr => chr.toUpperCase());
elmBlogAuthor.innerText = newName; // update the element contents

console.log(oldName, "->", newName);
</script>

    If I understand well, author var is encoded with caps in Liquid data source.

    I’d say something like that should work (not tested):

    {% liquid
    assign author = article.author | downcase
    assign author_parts = author | split:' '
    for part in author_parts
        echo part | capitalize | append: ' '
    endfor
%}
