Author Alias

  • I’ve been trying to find a plugin or something to add author aliases much like you can do in Joomla. I add a lot of old church writings to the site which I would love to display as being written by the actual authors instead of my personal username on the blog.

    Any ideas?

  • Assuming there’s no plugin that would work, you could consider:

    1. Create those authors as users, then edit the Posts and make the post author one of those users.
    2. Use Tags or Categories
    3. Use Custom Fields (Using_Custom_Fields)

    Hello,

    This is an example like i could do this with Custom Fields.

    i made a Custom Field Called Author-Alias and with this code, you can show it in your website.

    <?php $Alias = get_post_meta($post->ID, 'Author-Alias', true); ?>
Author : <?php if ($Alias == "")the_author_posts_link(); else echo $Alias; ?>
