How can I change the author of a blog post?
-
I am posting a blog post for someone else. This person is also a WordPress user in our environment. Is it possible to put his name as the author of the post?
The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

Hi there. Have you added that person as a user to your site? To have them display as the post author you’ll need to add them as a user (Contributor or Author level should suffice), and then when you create the post, look for the Author module in the post editor and select that person’s username. You need to have Editor or Admin permissions yourself to be able to assign someone else as author of a post. If you don’t see the Author module in the post editor, click on Screen Options at the top of the page and make sure that module is selected.
