News Widget Author not set shows owner name.
It seems to me that if you do not fill in the Autor in a News section then the name of the person how published the news is shown by the default widgets.
I would assume that if you don't fill in the Author then there might be a reason behind it and you don't want the name of some internal (no offence) visible there.
If this indeed the case I think it would be nice if the default widgets would not display an author if non was specified.
Acutally I would rather have this treated as an bug then a feature request. When no Author is given - none should be shown!

Hello,
Sorry for the inconvenience. The default widget templates use the following line to call for the content Publisher and/or author:
<
sf:PersonProfileView
ID
=
"PersonProfileView1"
runat
=
"server"
/>
<
sitefinity:TextField
runat
=
"server"
DisplayMode
=
"Read"
Value='<%# Eval("Author")%>' />

Hi ,
Thanks for great information. I am using list view item (List Settings in Front-end) for displaying news list on my page. It is working fine and showing news list properly on live page. but, problem is that It shows also Owner Name as Author name while not writing author name in Author Name box. We do not want to display owner name as author name. I am using Sitefinity 8.0.
Can you please suggest me how can I do this? Thanks.. Please ASAP
