Sharraxaad

Lots of folks using WordPress sites with multiple authors may run into this problem. You want to attribute correct credit to the writer/author of the article, but not give out access to your WordPress install. Maybe because it’s a one-time article, maybe not, who cares?

If the author of your blog entry is different than your logged in user and you don’t want to have to create a separate user account, just add the name as you’d like it to appear to the Custom Author Byline panel below the post/page editor (custom post types can be added too). Easy!

For more information on the WordPress Custom Author Byline plugin and how to use it, visit the information page at the preceding link.

Coming in Next Release

Ability to add custom post type support without having to edit the plugin or your functions file

Rakibaad

  1. Unzip the downloaded plugin file custom-author-byline.zip,
  2. Upload custom-author-byline.php to the /wp-content/plugins/ directory,
  3. Activate the plugin “Custom Author Byline” through the ‘Plugins’ menu in WordPress
  4. That’s it! You will now see a new panel below your post/page editor where you can type in whatever name and link you want to appear in place of your logged in user.

This is a basic, but very reliable plugin

drew3000 3 Sebteembar, 2016
I’ve been using this one for years, and should have left a positive review long before. It may seem a bit worrying that it doesn’t look like it’s been touched in a while. I think the developer should come back and give it a tweak or version update, but really, it still works very good with the latest WP, and it’s really useful for sites where you want multiple authors but not manage giving people their own accounts.

Works for my requirment

ajaybhasy 3 Sebteembar, 2016
I used this plugin so that I don’t have to create any extra users for the articles that others write, instead I can give their name as well as a link to the source. This doesn’t show any author Image, neither does it claim to do so. I am happy with this plugin, Thanks a lot.

This is fake plugin

ta.thi.nhu.tuyet 3 Sebteembar, 2016
Speechless for this. Useless thing.

Who are using this?

mayabeanus 3 Sebteembar, 2016
I want to see the faces of who are using this plugin. I mean, what are their face shape, are they similar with normal ones?

Do we have ZERO star?

jennywonus 3 Sebteembar, 2016
Don’t know why Wordpress not support rating at ZERO star. If has that feature, I am willing rate this a big ZERO or even minus.

Bad Plugin and no long compatible with WordPress

Tim Codex 3 Sebteembar, 2016
Keep away from this plugin.
