# Archive template help!

 * I was wondering if someone could explain to me how the author-{nicename}.php 
   exactly works? Does WordPress create this file automatically per each user?
 * Futhermore, i would like to know if its possible to create multiple archive template
   pages for custom post types. My site currently has a custom post type of “Articles”
   and i would like to access an archive page that displays all archived articles(
   currently my archive page displays archives of the main posts only).
 * When i created my custom type i set the has_archive argument to true so im assuming
   wordpress is archiving all of my articles so now i just need to be able to access
   them.
