   Hi, I have a multi-authored blog. How can I display the author-name and author-url at the beginning of all posts EXCEPT the posts written be me(admin)? Please help!

   I guess we can do this using CONDITIONAL TAGS.

   In a loop
   

   <?php
   $author = get_userdata($post->post_author);
   if ($author->user_login != 'admin') {
     echo '<p>Display name '.$author->user_login .'</p>';
     echo '<p>URL '.$author->user_url .'</p>';
   }
   ?>

   Thanks for the quick reply. It's working fine. But I would like to display just one line like:
   Guest Post by AUTHOR_NAME (AUTHOR_NAME linking to AUTHOR URL)

   Please help!

   Hey I framed it myself using your loop.

   <?php
   $author = get_userdata($post->post_author);
   if ($author->user_login != 'admin') {
   echo '<p>Guest Post by <a href="'.$author->user_url .'">'.$author->user_login .'</a>';
   }
   ?>

   Thanks for guiding me! :)
