Co-Authors, Multiple Authors and Guest Authors in an Author...

PublishPress Authors allows you to create, manage and display authors for all your WordPress content. The plugin provides author boxes that can display one author, coauthors, multiple authors or even guest authors. The boxes have the author bio, name, avatar, description and more. You can also place the author boxes in widgets, shortcodes and Gutenberg blocks.

Here are the some most important features of PublishPress Authors:

• Author Boxes. As soon as you install PublishPress Authors, you’ll see an author box under every post. You can add all the profile details you need for each author.
• Multiple Authors. By default, WordPress only allows one author per post. PublishPress Authors allows you to add an unlimited number of authors to each post. This is very useful if you have a busy site and need to manage and give credit to coauthors.
• Guest Authors. You can create two types of Guest Authors. You can add authors to a new “Guest Author” user role, or add them without a connected account.
• Author Categories. Categorize your authors as Coauthors, Reviews, Editors, Photographers, and more.
• Author Fields. Customize the user details for each author with fields for social media, job details, and more.
• Author Lists. Create a custom display of all your authors. You can sort, order, and filter to show only the authors you want.
• Author Pages. Showcase the work of each individual author with customizable author pages where you decide which post information is displayed.
