This plugin uses the custom taxonomy features of WordPress to create \"bylines\" \u2014 essentially, tags representing authors who contributed to a post. The differentiating feature of this plugin is that it should not require any modifications to your theme files (assuming it is already displaying the post author).<\/p>\n\n

This plugin would be useful for publishing situations where the majority of your content is from contributors who you don't necessarily want to have access to your back-end. It still conveys the appearance that the authors are members of the site (it provides a built-in archive page for each Byline). If your theme displays tag descriptions, you could use the Byline description field to identify guests vs. \"staff\" writers or provide other author information.<\/p>\n\n

You can see an example of this plugin at work at http:\/\/thedailycougar.com<\/p>\n\n\n

This section describes how to install the plugin and get it working.<\/p>\n\n

e.g.<\/p>\n\n

    \n
  1. Upload byline.php<\/code> to the \/wp-content\/plugins\/<\/code> directory<\/li>\n
  2. Activate the plugin through the 'Plugins' menu in WordPress<\/li>\n
  3. Add names directly in the post editor or the admin menu for \"Bylines\" just like you would for a regular tag.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n
