 * My newspaper uses WordPress, and for three years I have not been able to figure
   out how to keep from using my byline as the automatic byline for every story 
   I post. How do I post a story to where the correct byline is used the first time?
 * The page I need help with: _[[log in](https://login.wordpress.org/?redirect_to=https%3A%2F%2Fwordpress.org%2Fsupport%2Ftopic%2Fbylines%2F%3Foutput_format%3Dmd&locale=en_US)
   to see the link]_

 * [@1c3urrell](https://wordpress.org/support/users/1c3urrell/) – I suspect the “
   byline” you are referring to is the one that appears under the article headline
   and beside the “N” logo (for example `By PA News`).
 * If you are writing these articles then I would expect by default it to use your“
   account” to publish them as well. There is an option (usually hidden in most 
   current default installations) that would allow you to change the “author” of
   the article to another account before (or after) publishing.
 * Try the following to see if this helps: [http://take.ms/CWtRH](http://take.ms/CWtRH)(
   check the author box)
    Then scroll down below the TinyMCE editor’s box: [http://take.ms/rSiOP](http://take.ms/rSiOP)(
   select a different “byline” account).
 * Also to note, you can move the “Author” block to a more convenient place if that
   helps as well.
