When a post has one author, everything is perfect. Here’s the code I have in single.php of my theme:
```
<b>By <?php the_author_posts_link(); ?></b>
<br><i><?php
$value = get_cimyFieldValue(get_the_author_ID(), 'TITLE');
echo cimy_uef_sanitize_content($value);
?></i>
```
And here’s an example: http://rhodycigar.com/2014/08/30/freshman-year-survival-guide/

But if the post has multiple authors, it only shows the first one. Ideally, if there were more than one, it would say “By person 1 & person 2” then would skip the Cimy field. I’m just not sure how to code that. Any suggestions?

From the FAQ:

How do I add Co-Authors Plus support to my theme?
If you’ve just installed Co-Authors Plus, you might notice that the bylines are being added in the backend but aren’t appearing on the frontend. You’ll need to add the template tags to your theme before the bylines will appear.

So:
```
<b>By <?php if ( function_exists( 'coauthors_posts_links' ) ) {
    coauthors_posts_links();
} else {
    the_author_posts_link();
} ?></b>
<br><i><?php
$value = get_cimyFieldValue(get_the_author_ID(), 'TITLE');
echo cimy_uef_sanitize_content($value);
?></i>
```
