  I have the Coraline theme but I can’t quite figure out how to show the author’s name next to the post. I have seen two other blogs with the Coraline theme do so, http://thetased.wordpress.com/ and http://www.thedailytruffle.com/, it’s just I can’t get the hang of it. Can anyone help with this?

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  Regardless of the theme, bylines will only display now if there are at least two authors who both have at least one published post in the blog.

  For a single author byline workaround, and for a link to a list of themes that do display author profiles see here > http://onecoolsitebloggingtips.com/2012/01/03/wordpress-com-changes-bylines-for-authors/
