I have created a blog in section editor and within that blog have created a list field with all the Authors names. So when they add a new entry they just click on the drop down list and pick their name.


<?php header('Content-type: text/html; charset=utf-8'); ?>
<?php

require_once "/home/nzph/public_html/cmsAdmin/lib/viewer_functions.php";

list($ridersblogRecords, $ridersblogMetaData) = getRecords(array(
'tableName' => 'ridersblog',
'perPage' => '7',
));

?>
<?php
function maxWords($textOrHtml, $maxWords) {
$text = strip_tags($textOrHtml);
$words = preg_split("/\s+/", $text, $maxWords+1);
if (count($words) > $maxWords) { unset($words[$maxWords]); }
$output = join(' ', $words);

return $output;
}
?>

<!-- blog left column -->
<div id="LC_blog">

<!-- STEP2: Display Records (Paste this where you want your records to be listed) -->
<h1>Rider's Blog</h1>
<?php foreach ($ridersblogRecords as $record): ?>
<p span class="headline_blog"><a href="<?php echo $record['_link'] ?>"><?php echo $record['title'] ?></a></span>
<p><?php echo date("D, M jS, Y g:i:s a", strtotime($record['date'])) ?></p>
<p><?php echo $record['author'] ?></p>

<!-- For date formatting codes see: http://www.php.net/date -->
<p><?php echo maxWords($record['content'], 100); ?> . . . <a href="<?php echo $record['_link'] ?>">Read More</a></p>

<br/>


<hr size="1" noshade="noshade"/>
<?php endforeach; ?>

<?php if ($ridersblogMetaData['invalidPageNum']): ?>
Results page '<?php echo $ridersblogMetaData['page']?>' not found, <a href="<?php echo $ridersblogMetaData['firstPageLink'] ?>">start over &gt;&gt;</a>.<br/><br/>
<?php elseif (!$ridersblogRecords): ?>
No records were found!<br/><br/>
<?php endif ?>
<!-- /STEP2: Display Records -->


<!-- STEP3: Display Page Links (Paste anywhere below "Load Record List") -->
<?php if ($ridersblogMetaData['prevPage']): ?>
<a href="<?php echo $ridersblogMetaData['prevPageLink'] ?>">&lt;&lt; prev</a>
<?php else: ?>
&lt;&lt; prev
<?php endif ?>

- page <?php echo $ridersblogMetaData['page'] ?> of <?php echo $ridersblogMetaData['totalPages'] ?> -

<?php if ($ridersblogMetaData['nextPage']): ?>
<a href="<?php echo $ridersblogMetaData['nextPageLink'] ?>">next &gt;&gt;</a>
<?php else: ?>
next &gt;&gt;
<?php endif ?>
<!-- /STEP3: Display Page Links -->
</div>
<!-- end blog left column -->

<!-- blog right column -->
<div id="RC_blog">
<p span class="rightcol_title">AUTHORS</span>
<p>View blogs by Author
<a href="#">Author 1</a><br />
<a href="#">Author 2</a><br />
<a href="#">Author 3</a><br />
<a href="#">Author 4</a><br />
</p>

</div>
<!-- end blog right column -->

Not too sure if this has been mentioned yet but if someone could point me to a similar post or help would be good.

I am designing a blog with CMSB, I have the list page/detail page down the left column and I want to have a right hand column which shows up on each page with the Authors listed and a link from each authors name to a page which lists just their posts . . . .

AUTHORS
Author 1 [link to Author 1 blogs listings]
Author 2 [link to Auther 2 blogs listings]
Author 3 [link to Author 3 blogs listings]
etc

Sorry I am still relatively new with this so it may be something simple but can't seem to figure it out.
