# Adding byline to posts

 * I’ve read that the ability to add a byline on posts in WordPress is theme-specific.
   It appears that Zillah does not support this feature. Is there any way that I
   can automatically add bylines to every post with my name as the author — either
   via a plugin or by CSS code — even though Zillah doesn’t offer them? I am the
   only author on my site, so I’m not concerned about flexibility for multiple authors;
   I just want to show my name as the author of each article before the main text.(
   I am already using the Simple Author plugin, which adds author information at
   the END of each post, but I’d also like a simple byline to appear at the beginning,
   both on individual posts and on the homepage.)
 * Also, I am currently using the Under Construction plug-in, so I can’t give you
   a link to my site. But if you need me to upload screenshots, let me know.
 * Thanks,
    Jeremy

 * Hello Jeremy,
 * There are several plugins available for free for this option. To name a few –**
   Byline, Media Credit**,.etc. Note that I have not tested it myself but
    you can
   try and test if it works according to your need.
 * Hope it helps.
 * Best Regards,
 * AC
