RoyalSlider and Co-Author

Hello,

I use you plugin for a website that is required to have more than one authors.

I also use the plugin royalslider to have some slides in the homepgage. My question is how to include both authors in the royalslider slide?

Before I use co-author, I was using Advanced Custom Fields plugin to display the author that was set using the following code:
```
function newrs_add_acf_variable($m, $data, $options) {

    $m->addHelper('display_name', function() use ($data) {
			// $data is a WordPress post object (for posts-slider)

			// just return value
			$field_value = get_field('editor_name', $data->ID );
			return $field_value['display_name'];
    });

}
add_filter('new_rs_slides_renderer_helper','newrs_add_acf_variable', 10, 4);
```
And then I just used the following variable in the RoyalSlider HTML Markup to include the author: {{display_name}}.

My question is how can I include both post authors using Royalslider and Co-Author plus?

Nevermind, I found a way!

Google is our friend, so I found this: https://wordpress.org/support/topic/get-id-inside-coauthorsiterator?replies=2. Edited the code to my needs and ta-da, it works!!!

For anyone who wants to do the same thing then this is what worked for me (put the code inside functions.php file):

function newrs_add_acf_variable($m, $data, $options) {
    $m->addHelper('display_name', function() use ($data) {
	// $data is a WordPress post object (for posts-slider)

	// just return value
	$new_coauthor = '';
	$coauthors = get_coauthors($data->ID);
	foreach( $coauthors as $coauthor ) {
		$new_coauthor .= $coauthor->display_name.', ';
	}
	$the_coauthor = rtrim($new_coauthor, ', ');
	return $the_coauthor;
    });
}
add_filter('new_rs_slides_renderer_helper','newrs_add_acf_variable', 10, 4);
