TIL stock WordPress only supports a single author for a blog post. Huh.

@zachleat Quick, make a popular multiple author plugin so Matt stea— errr… merges it into core!

@josh @zachleat There is no multiple authors, there is only “us”…

@zachleat @josh “What WP theme would you like? The one we give you!”

@khalidabuhakmeh @josh oh man I look great what filter is this

@zachleat @josh I mean if anyone’s got the figure to pull off this skin-tight outfit, it’s you Zach. #bodyPositivity

@khalidabuhakmeh @josh well that’s my halloween costume sorted

@zachleat @josh Sorry, not going to photoshop that one. I think it would make things more awkward than they already are….😅

@zachleat Is it just a hardcoded string "Matt Mullenweg"? Seems like he co-opts everything else in that ecosystem, why not the content?

@zachleat there is also no good way to add it via plugin. Every one I’ve seen is super hacky, like adding a new “author” taxonomy behind the scenes, which then doesn’t work with standard queries

@zachleat I’ve done sites for a bunch of nonprofits and this is one of the first things they all want to change

@nim multi author plugins everywhere!
