Co-authors and changing the author

Every post has one author, and can have co-authors. Authors and co-authors are always members of your blog's team.

Change the author

1. Open the post in the editor.
2. In the post's settings, click Change author.
3. Click Make author next to the team member.

The author appears on the post and on their author page.

To change the author of many posts at once, use bulk edit.

Add co-authors

1. Open the post in the editor.
2. In the post's settings, open Co-authors.
3. Pick the team members to add.

Only Editors and roles above them can add co-authors.

Guest authors

To credit someone outside your team, invite them to your team first. See Team. Once they are a member, you can make them the author or a co-author of any post.

When a team member leaves

When someone is removed from your team, the posts they wrote are reassigned to the blog's owner. Nothing is deleted.
