# Authors page

 * Hi. My site is [http://www.chompchomp.us](http://www.chompchomp.us). I am trying
   to put together an authors page… simply a long list of the registered users.
 * I did search the Authors tags page in the wordpress support… and tried placing:
 * `<?php wp_list_authors(); ?>`
 * into my wordpress page that I had just created. You can see it here: [http://chompchomp.us/?page_id=1461](http://chompchomp.us/?page_id=1461)
 * It seems like it’s just displaying the php code, rather than actually using it.
   Any ideas as to how and easily do this?
 * Thanks,
    Greg

 * You cannot use template tags in the content area of your Pages (or posts, fo 
   that matter).
    You should create a Page template and put the tag (or any code)
   there, and create a new Page by using that template. Alternatively, you can look
   for a plugin that lets you run PHP code in posts/Pages.

 * I use a plugin called runPHP which works very well. You can find it [here](http://www.nosq.com/blog/2006/01/runphp-plugin-for-wordpress/).
