 * Hi,
 * I have a listing site,
 * In a listing, I see ‘Author Box’ (Top right side) but I cannot see or assign 
   a user to it?
 * What am I doing wrong please?
 * Many Thanks

 * Well authors are normally based on user accounts. Once the user has created a
   post it should show the author.
 * You can change the author of a post on quick edit. Select a different user and
   it should show the author on the box.
