 * I’m displaying the last ten articles posted by using this, which seems to work
   pretty well.
    <?php get_archives(‘postbypost’, ’10’, ‘custom’, ‘
    - ‘, ”); ?>
       Is there a way to get the author names after each of the ten that
      are displayed? I’ve tried everything. My knowledge of PHP is limited, to say
      the least.

 * I would suggest using `get_posts()` instead , as it lets you use all template
   tags you normally have available in The Loop:

 * That almost works except it puts my name after all of the entries rather than
   the actual author name.
