<p>This plugin allows you to display an unordered list of links to a specific author’s latest posts (or a list of multiple authors). It can be called either with a shortcode or from within a theme file.</p>
<p>To call it with a shortcode, use <code>[latestbyauthor author="username" show="3"]</code> where “username” is the login name of the author (or a comma separated list of multiple authors) and “3” is the number of posts to display. If you don’t specify an author or a display number, it will show the latest 5 posts from the author of the current page. If you want it to display the post excerpt as well, you can use the following code: <code>[latestbyauthor author="username" show="3" excerpt="true"]</code> This will only show exerpts that you have entered manually.</p>
<p>To call it from within a theme template, you have to wrap it in this PHP function: <code><?php echo do_shortcode('[latestbyauthor author="username" show="3"]'); ?></code></p>

<p>Ghostwriter overrides WordPress’s author pages and feeds to emulate the full functionality provided to WordPress users. Ghostwriter was developed by Floate in Melbourne. Just north of the river.</p>
<h3>When to use Ghostwriter</h3>
<p>Ghostwriter is best used for a blog written by multiple staff members but with a single person performing data entry.</p>
<p>Ghostwriter works when the writing and approval process operates outside of the WordPress dashboard. If approval is done within the dashboard, setting up users as contributors may be better.</p>
