[Plugin: Co-Authors Plus] Using is_first and is_last at the same time?!

    Here’s what I want to display:

    This article was written by Username1 with help from Username2, Username3 and Username4.

    I tried to configure the snippet provided to do this, but I always get this result:

    This article was written by Username1 with help from , Username2, Username 3 and Username4.

    As you can see, there’s a stray comma in there which I can’t get rid of. My PHP skills aren’t the best…

    Here’s my somewhat messy code:

    This article was written by
<?php
$i = new CoAuthorsIterator();
$i->iterate();
print "<strong>";
the_author_posts_link();
print "</strong>";
if ($i->count() > 1) {
 echo " with help from ";
}
while($i->iterate()){
		print $i->is_last() ? ' and ' : ', ';
		print $i->is_first() ? '' : '';
		print "<strong>";
		the_author_posts_link();
		print "</strong>";
}
?>
.

    I found this solution somewhere else:

    <?php
echo 'This article was written by';
the_author_posts_link();

$authors = new CoAuthorsIterator();
$authors->iterate();
if ($authors->count() > 1) {
	echo ' with help from ';

	$i = 0;
	while($authors->iterate()) {
		if ($i > 0) echo ', ';
		if ($authors->is_last()) echo 'and ';

		the_author_posts_link();
		$i++;
	}
}

echo '.';
?>
