  Hi,

  If you go to your Dashboard, then to Users, you can remove users from there.

  Do you have multple official authors on the site? If so see here https://en.support.wordpress.com/user-roles/#removing-users

  If not then know that some theme automatically display author bylines and some do not. Some themes automatically display author bio profiles below each post but most do not.

  Be aware that not all themes provide an author byline. It is not possible to have multiple author bylines on the same post. And, the author profile and gravatar that appears below each post in some themes only will appear only when there are two or more published authors on a blog. That data comes from the “About you” section on this page

  https://NAME_OF_BLOG.wordpress.com/wp-admin/users.php?page=grofiles-editor

  *Replace NAME_OF_BLOG withe the actual name of your blog in that URL.

  You cannot provide username accounts and logins to others here at wordpress.com. Here your official users have to register their own wordpress.com accounts and passwords.
