author in page.html

I noticed that config has a single author but pages can have specific multiple authors too. I haven't dealt with the latter as this is a personal blog, but that may be something to keep in mind.

Thank you! I had not considered it.

That would make it clear my name is a name and not some weird language you can't read.

I also had not considered certain names might be confusing without any context. I decided to go with By $AUTHOR, as "Author: $AUTHOR" would be problematic for languages with grammatical gender.

Sure thing! I knew this feature request would come sooner or later :)

Do you have any opinions on the format? E.g. just the author name, "Author: $author_name", "Written by $author_name"…

Alright, the code is ready, but I need to:

• Write the docs
• Decide on the format

I'm leaning towards using the author as is, without prefixes. I'm open to suggestions, though.

That's what I have done in my template hack, just put in the author name. Like this:

Martijn Faassen  •  2024-05-24  • Tags: ..

You could prefix it with Author: too, which would make it consistent with Tags. That would make it clear my name is a name and not some weird language you can't read.

Done! Let me know if you encounter any issues~
