Problem:
How do I display the post author in the backend
I have a custom post type 'Listings'. When a user creates a listing, it appears in the list on the backend with publish date and category but I notice I'm not able to tell which user posted the listing.

Solution:
Please try this:
Dashboard-> Toolset-> Post Types,
find and edit the post type, in section "Sections to display when editing ", enable the options "Author", and test again

I have a custom post type 'Listings'. When a user creates a listing, it appears in the list on the backend with publish date and category but I notice I'm not able to tell which user posted the listing.

How do I find this information OR how do I display the post author in the backend please?

Dear Julie,

I suggest you try this:
Dashboard-> Toolset-> Post Types,
find and edit the post type, in section "Sections to display when editing ", enable the options "Author", and test again

That was easier than I was expecting!

I had noticed this option whilst looking for a solution but because the section said 'to display when EDITING' I thought this would change something on the frontend. I've selected 'author' and can now see the author in WPAdmin area as required.

Thank you!
