 * I’ve added the guest authors. But my name is appearing on the post (they’re in
   the meta). I see the plugin was updated recently but 1 Star reviews complain 
   of the same thing from months ago?
 * The page I need help with: _[[log in](https://login.wordpress.org/?redirect_to=https%3A%2F%2Fwordpress.org%2Fsupport%2Ftopic%2Fdoes-this-work-20%2F%3Foutput_format%3Dmd&locale=en_US)
   to see the link]_

 * Yes, it works – but what most people seem to gloss over is the fact that you 
   typically need to make some updates to your theme to have it display.

 * Thanks. Is there someone I can pay to do this? I’m not a developer. And even 
   though I can follow basic coding instructions, that page is more like info for
   devs. I tried Fiverr and it was a disaster. I’m guessing it’s a 1 minute job 
   for someone who knows what they’re doing.

 * I guess not, I can’t waste any more time on this right now 🙁

 * Offering to pay (or offering work for hire) are both against the support forum
   guidelines, hence why you didn’t get anyone taking you up on your offer.
