When you have a blog that is being run by multiple authors, there are times that more than one person contribute to an article. One way of displaying that is when you show something like we do by claiming post is written by Editorial Staff. Another way of going about this is showing co-authors and linking to their profile individually. In this article we will share a plugin called Co-Authors that will let you associate multiple authors to a post in WordPress.
Co-authored posts appear on a co-author’s posts page and feed. Additionally, co-authors may edit the posts they are associated with, and co-authors who are contributors may only edit posts if they have not been published (as is usual).

A substitute plugin is called Multiple Authors that also does the same job..
It would be great if one of the author box plug ins also worked for multiple authors. I haven’t been able to find one that works. Any ideas?
I have also made a plugin that works perhaps even better. (For me, at least). It works by custom fields, usernames, and filters and hooks. Reading your comment policy I don’t know whether I do the right thing linking to it, but it is a ‘useful resource’, ain’t it? So, WT Co-authors is it. It was featured on a couple of blogs.
Only listed as compatible up to WP 2.6.2 though :/ Anybody know if it works in 2.8?
It should work
