  Hi,

  I’m modifying the latest version of the k.i.s (keep it simple) theme and can’t figure out how to display the author name along with the date in each post. Underneath the post title, I’d like to read “Date, by Author”

  My blog is at educationresearchdigest.com

  Also, I created a new page called “Our Mission,” but it doesn’t display on the nav bar. Any advice for that?

  thanks!

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  That would require access to the underlying theme PHP script files and we do not have access to those.

  With that theme, my suggestion is to start every post with a “byline.” Examples: By Tim or Author: Tim or Written by Tim. That sort of thing.
