Authors on my Blog are Anonymous

  • Is there anyway to have someone’s username appear next to their blog entry?

    I have 5 authors registered but you can’t tell who-posts-what becausse their username does not show up next to their post.

    Their username DOES appear along side “comments”, however.

    thanks!

  • Put <?php the_author(); ?> somewhere

    Thanks. Which php file should I add it to?

    never mind, got it. “Main Template”

    I’m sorry I’m trying to do the same thing but can’t quite figure it out where to put it. Main Template is index.php? Where do I put it in there? I tried and only got errors. Thanks for the help!

    Here is a copy out of my blog’s Main Template file… Access from WP Admin -> Presentation -> Theme Editor -> Main Template
    <br />
    <div class="post"><br />
    <h3 class="storytitle" id="post-<?php the_ID(); ?>"><a>" rel="bookmark"><?php the_title(); ?></a></h3><br />
    <div class="meta"><?php _e("Filed under:"); ?> <?php the_category(',') ?> — <?php the_author() ?> @ <?php the_time() ?> <?php edit_post_link(__('Edit This')); ?></div>

    <div class="storycontent"><br />
    <?php the_content(__('(more...)')); ?><br />
    </div><br />

    Also do us a favor and post the link to the blog with issues…

    Thanks! The Admin -> Presentation -> Theme Editor -> Main Template was all I needed to know because it linked me to /wp-content/themes/default it turns out the author part was commented out and I just had to change that. Thanks again!

    hi guys.
    how do i make the <?php the_author(); ?> a link to all posts by the author?

    thanks!
