Wordpress author -- "Post by", where is that option?

  • So on my company's blog we have 3 people set as admin.

    I can't seem to find the option, or even a plugin that shows who wrote that particular post. How do I make this happen?
  • Hey :)

    Yea you just need to add

    Posted by: <?php the_author () ?>


    Then it should display "Posted by: Barry"

    you will find the place in your index.php in your theme directory. That should work :)

    on my wordpress install, the code was there but commented out. try your index.php from the theme you are using to see if it is there / commented out

    but it is the code which was stated by the above post:
    by <?php the_author() ?>
  • Ha. Yep. It was commented out.
