You're not the first person to ask for an Authors Page plugin through. How do you envision it working? Enabling the plugin activates a new page within your WP? @Michael Eichler
Hi Michael,

The widget itself makes use of the the template tag wp_list_authors and placing that tag within your template should be sufficient to create a simple staff page. You’re not the first person to ask for an Authors Page plugin through. How do you envision it working? Enabling the plugin activates a new page within your WP?

I have a lot of experience coding and found some code snipits I thought I could use to develop the functionality I need, but I can't seem to figure out WP well enough to get them to work. (Like, my code's output doesn't seem to appear in pages it generates?!?) Any interest in taking your plugin and expanding it so that the functionality can be called from a WP template page to list the authors of a blog? If not, any thoughts on who might have done this already? I've been working on this for weeks, off and on, and am getting nowhere. Thanks! -M Hi, Matt:

I would consider building in support for it except that a note mentions <a href="http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/co-authors/" rel="nofollow">it is not being actively maintained</a>. As for getting your coauthors to appear: If the template tag coauthors_wp_list_authors() truly works the same as wp_list_authors(), simply replace the function call in class-list-authors.php (WP version 2.8) or in prebaker.php (WP versions prior to 2.8). Good luck! @Andrew

We are using your list authors plugin, which is really convenient. A small glitch is that coauthors to posts are not listed. Tried the hack here http://wordpress.org/support/topic/228978 but it didn't seem to work. Any ideas? Thanks so much! Andrew, OL Hi Matt!

Unfortunately the WP template function the plugin uses does not support any more functionality than is already included so it would take quite a bit of custom coding to add a list size limit. However if I have spare time I might add the functionality. Hi Heather,

Our blog has a lot of authors since we have contributing college students from across the country. I was wondering if it's possible to limit the number of authors that are listed on the sidebar...our list is getting really long (http://www.collegejolt.com). Any ideas? Thanks! Heather Hi Matt,
