How Do I Find the Author Name by Post ID in WordPress?

In WordPress, the author name is typically displayed in the post’s comments area, just below the post’s title. To find the author name by post ID, follow these steps:

Open the post in question. In the top left corner, click the “Comments” link. The comment text box will appear. In the comment text box, look for the post ID. This number is located just to the right of the post’s timestamp. Copy the post ID. Go to the “Posts” page. In the top right corner, click the “Edit” link.

The “Post” page will appear. In the “Post” page, click the “Details” link. The “Details” page will appear. In the “Details” page, find the “Author” field and paste in the post ID that you copied in step 1. Click the “update” button. The “Details” page will reload, and the “Author” field will now show the correct information. Click the “publish” button. The “Post” page will reload, and the post will be published.

If you want to find the author name for a post that was published earlier, you can go to the “Posts” page and find the post in question. Then, in the “Details” page, find the “Author” field and paste in the post ID that you copied in step 1.

Click the “publish” button.
