 * If you use the [template tag](http://codex.wordpress.org/Template_Tags), [wp_list_authors()](http://codex.wordpress.org/Template_Tags/wp_list_authors),
   you can list the authors in your blog–you would likely put that code in your 
   sidebar.php.

 * i want to have it so when users see the authors name in the article. They can
   click on the authors name, and it will tyake them to the profile of that author.
   Not to list all authors..
 * I already use author pages, but i cant seem to get permalinks working with the
   plugin i am using. So i have to change the text the link to the authors profile
   page. To something other than
 * sitename.com/author/authorname/
 * i need to go back to sitename.com/?author=5
 * the code i use now is
 * <td style=”border-style: solid; border-width: 1px”>** More By the Same Author:**
   
   </td>
 * Unless someone can help me wioth the htaccess/permalinks problem. This is what
   i have to do.
 * hope that made sense
 * thx in advance

 * I figured it out.. 🙂 thx
 * i used <?php the_author_posts_link(); ?>
 * and worked great.
 * And i installed the same site on the root instead of the subfolder of my hosting
   and permalinks worked just fine…grrr..
 * so i need to know how to make wordpress know that my site is in a subfolder off
   my hosting root.. something in the htacces file?
 * I am setup like so
 * main site(root) permalinks are fine
    >>testersite(subfolder off the root) permalinks
   not fine.
 * hope that makes sense.
    any help would be appreciated.
