  This might be because of my theme, but on the main page of my blog I don’t have the authors name. It’s fine when you go to the actual article, but I’m not getting anything at the bottom or top of each entry on the main page. Is it my theme? I’m using ChaoticSoul.

  Thanks!

  I assume this is your blog? → http://thebirdnest.wordpress.com/

  Right. Your theme is not set up to display author name in the blog listings. You can set this with CSS, but you would need to utilize the CSS Upgrade.

  BTW, like the fractals in your header image!

  Thanks Beemeister, I thought that was the issue. Time to look into a new theme or pony up I guess.

  Thanks for the compliment on the header! I’m pretty new at this, so its nice to hear people like my decisions. I really like how yours is set up, really efficient. Do you have custom CSS?

  Thanks for the kind comment! No, I do not have the CSS Upgrade, but I do use custom css tags in my posts and widgets. I have a personal challenge to see how long I can go without the CSS upgrade. We’ll see how long I can hold out!
