   Hi All,

   I've chosen the ChaoticSoul theme, and love it except for one thing. It doesn't automatically list a posted by in each post. Does anybody know if this can be added easily or otherwise to this theme?

   The blog I need help with is hereandnowness.com.

   It depends on the blog; we need a link to it, starting with http, in order to tell.

   There is no way to add that to the theme metadata (date/categories/tags, etc.). I would require editing the underlying theme PHP script files, and we cannot do that here. It cannot be done through CSS either.

   If you like that theme, add a "byline" to the beginning of each post. The other choice is to change to a theme that does display the author name in the metadata.

   You can also add the author's name as a category, and then it becomes clickable to all the stories by that one author.
