sneezers

ah, okay! when i compare it with the classic theme then i know how it works! thank you moshu! thank you computerfriend!

hi nicholas, im using the template “almost spring” it is available at the “extend” page here.

computerfriend : be my friend too 🙂 anyway, i’ve tried the codes u gave, somehow it shows only the blog time, but still no author

it shows like this

“January 17, 2006 at 9:21 am by “

still no author, for your information i notice that index file got something similar with the author thing

<?php } elseif (is_author()) { ?>
<h2><?php _e(‘Author Archive’); ?></h2>

it shows like that. in fact most of the codes are not using “the_date” or “the_author” , only “is_date” “is_author”

im very new with this 🙂

here are some of the codes

<?php if (is_category()) { ?>
<h2><?php _e(‘Archive for’); ?> <?php echo single_cat_title(); ?></h2>

<?php } elseif (is_day()) { ?>
<h2><?php _e(‘Archive for’); ?> <?php the_time(‘F j, Y’); ?></h2>

<?php } elseif (is_month()) { ?>
<h2><?php _e(‘Archive for’); ?> <?php the_time(‘F, Y’); ?></h2>

<?php } elseif (is_year()) { ?>
<h2><?php _e(‘Archive for’); ?> <?php the_time(‘Y’); ?></h2>

<?php } elseif (is_author()) { ?>
<h2><?php _e(‘Author Archive’); ?></h2>

Hi bsimon, hope you dont mind im borrowing your thread since i roughly have the same problem as yours.
I’m using wordpress 1.5.2 (havent upgrade yet) and the theme “almost spring” by becca wei. I have the same problem as bsimon in which the author name is not display (have multiple author) and i’ve tried to add this

<?php the_author(‘idmode’, echo); ?>

but by doing that, somehow the blog cannot be display when i preview it.

i also look for <!– by <?php the_author() ?> –> to remove the <!– –> but i cant find it. can someone help me?
