Does this affect posts / pages / admin / ???
No. this only affects people going to the /author/ template page on a site, and only affects those that have been marked to redirect.
Can I change where the redirect goes?
Yes. There is a filter to change the default behavior. In your functions file, include the following:
function new_auth_url($location) {
$location = 'http://google.com';
return $location;
}
add_filter( 'extra_author_redirect_url', 'new_auth_url' );
