Author names on posts in WordPress 2.02

  • I’ve looked up this topic, but didn’t really understand the replies. Sorry if I’m dense: I’m new to WP. I think v2.0 works differently with including author’s names on posts than 1.5. I haven’t seen an explanation on how to do this in v2. Any help is appreciated.

    Here’s some help with template tags – if you’re looking to add the author of the post to each post, you’ll want to put something like this:

    This post was written by <?php the_author(); ?>

    inside “the loop” (before the end of the post content divs) inside your index.php file (and possibly inside other files depending on the theme you’re using).
