This plugin allows users to assign guest author names to posts using custom meta fields. It extends the WordPress search functionality to include guest author names in results.<\/p>\n\n\n

    \n
  1. Upload the plugin files to the \/wp-content\/plugins\/guest-author-search<\/code> directory, or install the plugin through the WordPress plugins screen directly.<\/li>\n
  2. Activate the plugin through the 'Plugins' screen in WordPress.<\/li>\n
  3. Assign guest author names to posts via the post meta box.<\/li>\n
  4. Search for posts by guest author names through the default WordPress search.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n
    \n

    How does the plugin work?<\/h3><\/dt>\n

    The plugin adds a custom meta field _guest_author_name<\/code> to posts. This field is searchable using the standard WordPress search function.<\/p><\/dd>\n

    Can I customize the meta field?<\/h3><\/dt>\n

    Yes, the _guest_author_name<\/code> meta field can be modified or extended to support additional metadata.<\/p><\/dd>\n\n<\/dl>\n\n\n
