Last author who most recently modified the post

Hi hanat,

I was looking for the same code and I’ve found that the following works:

if ( $last_id = get_post_meta($post->ID, '_edit_last', true) ) {
    $last_user = get_userdata($last_id);
    echo $last_user->display_name;
}

I suggest that this is incorporated into the WordPress source code as a new function the_modified_author()

It’s a pleasure. If you need any more wordpress help contact me via my website http://instantsolve.net.

I’ve submitted this as an enhancement in the wordpress trac so we might see this as part of the wordpress core soon.

This function has now been added to the wordpress trunk!
