Choose author per post

Hello,

I’d like to choose the author from a list for every post.

I see that authors are WP users. And the author has to have access to the website in order to post content.

I need WP manager to post the articles and choose the author for the article. Then a flex block to show the following:
– Author Name
– Author Photo
– Post title
– date

When you click on the article in the flex block to go to the standard single post with featured image, text etc. and the author name and picture under it.

I’m attaching a screenshot example.

I see there is an input field VIA: Name under the article that could be used and showed in the flex block but additional image must be selected every time for the author. That could work, too.

The best option would be an autocomplete dropdown field to choose the author. Then a separate menu with authors’ names and images to upload for every author.

Please let me if it can be achieved with the current builder or you need to do customization. If so, send me the quote.

Thank you very much!

Hello!

When you edit a post normally, there is a dropdown where you can choose the author.
If the author decides to publish the article from his account, then the author name will be automatically set (if it is not chosen) with the current author name.

Yes, add the Flex block 1 element, check the guide: https://forum.tagdiv.com/flex-block-settings-guide/
The time format can be changed when you select custom format and paste one from here: https://www.screencast.com/t/xsWp71LD4g to have both date and time: https://www.screencast.com/t/CR4vB42DVH

Thank you!
