    Hi, using WorePress for the first time. One problem I'm running into is that posts do not show the author. When I write a post from the Dashboard I have the name selected in the drop down but when published it doesn't show up on the blog. Can someone tell me where I would find the control for this?

    Thank you very much.

    Fred

    It may be that way because the theme designer designed it not to display the author of the post. You can add in the function that displays the author information fairly easy if you edit your theme's single.php file.

    Boy, things move fast here. Thanks for such a prompt reply. I'm using the Default template and will take your advise and follow the link you supplied.

    That was it. It was in the Loop but was commented out. Thanks Dr. Mike
