    Hi there, our team was able to install the (Simply) Guest Author Name plugin onto both our websites. The first one is deployed and live and everything works fine. The second one is currently being developed. However, we are not able to display the Guest Author Name on this second website for some reason. Both websites are using the same WP theme (Gillion by Shufflehound) the only difference is the second website is in a development environment on the server. Aside from that, I can’t determine why the plugin works for one website and NOT the other. Please help?

    Hello,

    This is very strange. Are the two sites exactly the same? Are the plugins exactly the same on both sites? If not, you may have to disable all of the plugins to determine which one is interfering with guest author plugin. Is there custom code in the child theme that differs from the main site?

    If they are exactly the same, make sure that all plugins and themes are updated on both sites and that you are using the latest version of PHP and WordPress

    Let me know.

    Ha! I just figured it out. Our editorial lead is using another plugin to display “Last Modified” meta tags. The problem was that this Last Modified plugin displays the author’s name. So we had to include the author so that meta tag displays in order for us to get the guest author’s name to show up. So the problem is fixed. But might prove useful if someone else finds a similar problem. Thanks for the prompt reply!
