List Authors Plus Plugin

Wow, I was so caught up with security that I totally forgot to tell y’all about my new plugin. Well, I told ya this was coming out a week ago and here it is.

This plugin was created after I got tired of patching together bits and pieces of coding and couldn’t make things work properly. Also in response to some client requests. List Authors Plus lets you list authors on your blog as well as filter out authors by role, individual ID or name. It’ll also organize the authors by most posts if you wish.

Why not use wp_list_authors tag? Because that tag (at this time) is limited. It can only filter out admin but not selective roles or people. That is the biggest thing. Sorting is also not possible. Maybe WordPress will add them in the future but for right now if you need to do this, use our plugin.

This is the official page for the plugin.

This is the download page for it over at WordPress Plugin Database.

Enjoy!

    Hi there, I think that this kind of plugin is really important!

    I was just wondering…is there a way to sort the list by author ID or putting on top the author that posted last?

    that might be good!

    thanks anyway 😉

      Hi there! Listing author by ID is already included. In the widget you only have to exclude the authors you don’t want to appear. If using code in the template tag you can list is by ID or user name. Like this. It’s also outlined in the FAQ.
      wp_list_authors_plus( ‘excluded_ids=1&excluded_usernames=onion’);

      Sorting author by last post date not at the moment, but interesting. I’ll probably check with our developer. Thanks for the suggestions 🙂
