Byline

I have read through the posts on this topic and I changed the code, but the site is still not displaying bylines. Help?

I am referring to the screenshot that you linked to.

I would ideally want bylines to appear on these two locations for posts: http://www.screencast.com/t/CyFjunsTwk7 and http://www.screencast.com/t/WqoLJo5NzN.

Is that possible, or can it be in the very near future?

The edits are good but they only apply to one of many possible templates your posts can have. Do the exact same code edit (uncommenting the byline) in each of the following files:

loop-single.php, loop-single-1.php, single_template_2.php, single_template_3.php, single_template_4.php, single_template_5.php

And if you want, a similar edit for each of these files in includes/modules (the modules display posts in blocks and archive pages mainly):

td_module_1.php, td_module_2.php, td_module_3.php, td_module_4.php, td_module_5.php, td_module_6.php, td_module_8.php, td_module_9.php, td_module_aj_search.php, and td_module_search.php (if it isn’t already uncommented in that last one).

Happy editing!

Thank you! The bylines are now showing on posts, but not on the homepage. Is this still possible? —I can’t find where to edit the modules.

Great! Yeah, your homepage will be using the modules. They can be found in your WordPress directory like this: /wp-content/themes/Newspaper/includes/modules. The specific line is:

<?php //echo $this->get_author();?>

Which will become:

<?php echo $this->get_author();?>
