Author name not appearing on posts
-
I’m using the theme Twenty Ten, which should display “Posted on (date) by (author)” but my posts only show “Posted on (date).” I can’t find a setting to fix this. It’s a group blog so I really want the author information to appear. I even tried changing the theme to Twenty Eleven (because it also should show the author info) but it still didn’t show up. I feel like I’m missing something very basic here, but I just can’t figure it out. Any ideas?
The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

Hi. In order to assist you, we need the URL of your blog, starting with http:// please. Thanks.

Whoops! Sorry! It’s here: http://robbinslibrary.wordpress.com There’s only one post so far as I’m trying to work all this stuff out before we really start using it. But I have a draft of a post I’m working on and checked the preview and the author name wasn’t showing up. Thanks!

Please note that Staff made a change in November. Regardless of the theme, author bylines will only display now if there are at least two authors, who both have at least one published post in the blog. Read more? > WordPress.com Changes Bylines for Authors

Thank you – that explains a lot! This didn’t come up when I searched the support/forums section so I appreciate the link.

You’re welcome. :)
P.S. Note that I provided a workaround in the article I linked to above for single Authors of blogs who do want to have their byline displayed.
