Post Author name runaround

  • It seems that there are a lot of different answers to the same question. That question being “how do I get a post’s author’s name to appear in the post.” Since many say, it depends on the theme, I’ll ask the same question here. Please and thank you.

  • Looking at the custom community demo, it looks like the link to the author appears on the single post template – https://custom-community-pro.themekraft.com/2010/12/img-left-content-right/

    Is that not working on your site?

    Can you provide a link to yours?

    Appreciate your responding. I think the greater problem is that my crash course in WP and templates and loops and etc etc was very short, and at this point a long time ago when I first started doing this about 6 months ago. Before that, my last adventure into interneting this and that, well, shtml was new! And since then I’ve been doing a full time job And starting a business. Ok, I found my single.php file, but I didn’t see the <?php the_author(); ?> that I believe I am supposed to be looking for nor did I find the the_title that others have said I need to find and adjust into the <?php the_author(); ?>. Where do I actually manipulate “tags”? Is it in code, or in some menu/panel?
