    I’m going to have multiple users on my blog, thus I want the author’s name to show up whenever they post. How do I make that happen?

    If I’m not making sense, I guess an example would be this:
    postpostpostpostpost
    -Posted by Author / tags, tags / Comments

    Thanks!

    The WordPress Default theme has an example of the_author in the wp-content/themes/default/index.php but the code is ‘commented-out’ so it doesn’t execute. So if you wanted to display the author info with the WordPress Default theme you would change the line in wp-content/theme/default/index.php
    from:
    <small><?php the_time('F jS, Y') ?> <!-- by <?php the_author() ?> --></small>
    to
    <small><?php the_time('F jS, Y') ?> by <?php the_author() ?> </small>
