Time and Author Not Showing Up (3 posts)

  1. I'm using Wordpress 2.3 and Default Theme 1.6 by Michael Heilemann.

    Currently when I write a post only the date is showing up under the title. I'd like to have the time and author as well... is there a plug-in, setting or some easy way to get this done, (I'm not a programmer-type).

    Thanks :-)

  2. Not all themes are coded to display timestamps and authors. It sounds like you have selected one that doesn't.

    If the lack of timestamp is a deal breaker for you there are two options.
    (1) Type in the time on each post.
    (2) Switch to a theme that has this feature.

    Themes with and without timestamps - partial lists as new themes have been added since. http://en.forums.wordpress.com/topic.php?id=1703

    If the lack of an author's name is a deal breaker for you there are two options.
    (1) Create a category in the author's name like John Doe that can be assigned to theposts.
    (2) Type an author's byline on each post as in ... by John doe.
    (3) Switch to a theme that has this feature.

    Here's a review of features for most but not all themes http://internetducttape.com/tools/wordpress/wordpress-theme-reviews/

  3. Um, TT, the blog in question is not hosted here. The OP needs to head over to http://wordpress.org/support/
