You'd then have to use PHP to determine if the author archive link should be there or not. </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/content-submission-author#post-27303 Wed, 08 Jun 2011 09:39:12 +0000 Greendave 27303@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>Hi David,</p> <p>Thanks for the response. I have figured out how to display posts from people who contribute in the following format:</p> <p>POST TITLE<br /> Date | Category | Name</p> <p>BODY......</p> <p>The "Name" is taken from the custom post field set up to fake the author but previously this was a registered user so when you clicked on the "Name" tag you could get an archive of that users posts. Is there any way to leave this in so that registered users archives will be available to click on and non-registered users names will just be displayed? </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/content-submission-author#post-27208 Tue, 07 Jun 2011 14:48:09 +0000 David Smith 27208@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>Hi Greendave,</p> <p>The post author must be a WordPress user. You can "fake" this on the front end by pulling the submitters name from a custom field by customizing the page template used to display these posts. </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/content-submission-author#post-27193 Tue, 07 Jun 2011 12:15:28 +0000 Greendave 27193@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>I wish to add a content submission form to my site and I have carried out some testing and can pretty much get all of the required information to appear in a draft post awaiting approval from admin. However, I would like to display the name of the content submission author on the post but at present everything comes up as "admin". Is it possible to do this by automatically creating the author using a custom field when a post is submitted? </p>
