 * Hi,
 * I was wondering if you could add a show author option. So the category list shows
   the title and the author under it. Or maybe there is a way I could implement 
   this myself?
 * Greetings

 * Hello Seikopath,
 * I added the option “Show post author” option on GitHub: [https://github.com/DanielFloeter/same-category-posts](https://github.com/DanielFloeter/same-category-posts)
 * You can give me your feedback or another proposal otherwise I will release the
   added feature on WordPress.org ‘ASAP’. *
 * Are you familair with GitHub? Because you can download the code there ([https://github.com/DanielFloeter/same-category-posts](https://github.com/DanielFloeter/same-category-posts))
   and copy it to your plugin folder ([your-wp-installation]/wp-content/plugins/
   same-category-posts) to your wordpress installation.

 * Hello Kometschuh,
 * Wow, that was quick. Thank you for your help. I posted it into the folder and
   it works perfectly now.
 * Will I have to manually post it in again when you update the plugin? Or will 
   you include it in the next update.
 * Thanks again, and have a great day!

 * You can update to 1.4.6. And it’s the same code as you had. The code only differs
   in the version number. In your code the version number is not increased to 1.4.6.
   That’s why you get a update button in WP admin panel to update to 1.4.6. For 
   you the update don’t change anything any more.
