How do I get my blog to say "Posted by"? Is there a plugin for this? This is imporant because someone is going to be joining me soon in writing entries for my blog. Perhaps there is code I need to add into the theme editor somewhere. Anyone know how I do this?
Would there not be somewhere in the admin where you can create a posting account for another poster and set it to show their name? apologies if you have looked already.
in you single.php put Posted By: <?php the_author (); ?> Code (markup): anywhere in the loop, generally after the "the_title" line.
Thanks mizaks. I google'd that to find out more and ended up using this code instead: <?php the_author_posts_link('idmode'); ?> Code (markup): idmode being replaced by nickname. That will create a link with my nickname. How do you change the original Username? It doens't look like that can be changed. It was already there when the theme was sold to me. Because the nickname link leads to /author/username instead of my nickname.
Well this create something like say: Posted By: Joe....Without creating a link to my posts? I do not want to have the authors names linked up to their posts, since thats not a popular feature on my blog, id rather keep google away from that and hope to avoid dupe content... you can take a look at my blog if you want, i just wanna get rid of the link on my name...

You can have it so that your name links to your site instead. I decided not to do this based on same reason as you stated (dupe content). If you go HERE that will give you code for "author's link."
