We'll work on that.

Thanks, hope for that fix. Need it working also for Google Search Author Tag.

Can you explain the problem with the "Google Search Author Tag" ?

If one's blogpost is signed by name and that name is linked to the corresponding Google+ profile the results in Google Search show up the profile image of the G+ Profile. Now Blogposts are signed by username and that is not corresponding to the Google+ Profile. In consequence sites will be linked without any author tag.

In 5.0.4, you can display the post author's full name like this:

echo $Item->get_creator_User()->get( 'fullname' );

in footer $author$ shows the full name, but in items after "by" the username is given out.

Where do I have to add that line you mentioned?

You would have to add that in your skin. If you are not familiar with editing skins, it's best to wait for v 5.0.5. We'll fix this.

it seems to me that this is not a problem of a special skin. showing up username instead of author oder nickname persists whatever skin I am going to use.

Adding this to index.main.php of asevo doesn't work either:

<pre>
<?php
$Item->get_creator_User();
if( $Item->assigned_user_ID )
{
$the_author = $UserCache->get_by_ID( $Item->assigned_user_ID );
}
else
{
$the_author = $Item->Author;
}
echo ‘<a href="’.url_add_param( $Blog->get( ‘blogurl’, ‘htmlattr’ ), ‘author=’.$the_author->ID).’" title="Browse all articles from ‘.$the_author->get_preferred_name().’"><img src="rsc/icon_16_author.gif" border="0"></a>’;
?> </pre>

when will 5.05 stable be released?

No it's not a problem of a particular skin. We are going to fix it for *all* skins in 5.0.5.

It will be released as soon as all current bug reports are fixed. Probably before the end of july.

thanks and greetings
