Author Name vs Forum Name

[GrnEyedDvl]

As Bob suggested I am posting this here instead of on his other site.

Currently if you have an Author name setup, it shows on your Article instead of your forum name. But if you have other people that contribute, their forum name shows up in the Article Contributors block.

I am suggesting that the Author name show in this block, instead of the forum name.​

​

And that just below the article where the Author block is that either add the names in smaller text with links to them or another Contributors block maybe, between the Author and the Comments?​

​

I also noticed that if you view an Author list Published articles that only the articles they created are listed. The ones they contributed to are not. Maybe a small block that says Also contributed to.. with thumbnails instead of full pics. Lots of things like how people arrange things (grid vs list) could maybe make this a bit unworkable. Or maybe a sidebar in Authors list page, which could also make that a valid widget target. Primary author and Contributed to


Lastly, if you write 10 articles but contribute to 50, your profile page shows you as writing 10 articles. I have some thoughts on that but it probably needs a new suggestion.
