  Hi @kobuskoster, if you’re talking about editing your byline, the text is often determined by the theme you’re using or one of your site’s settings.

  If you need more help, could you send a link to the affected site?

  Also, please note these forums are for the sites hosted and managed here at WordPress.com, vs sites using WordPress code with another host. If you’re not sure about your site, send a link and we can point you in the right direction.

  But if it is definitely hosted somewhere else, we’d recommend reaching out to your theme support, or searching and posting in the forums for the free WordPress software: https://wordpress.org/support/forums/
