Hi Daniel Could you assign each author their own category? (Bob Smith, John Doe, etc). That would allow you to display all articles by the same author by selecting their category.
The biggest problem would then be if you also needed to view their articles by non-author categories, e.g., if an article written by Bob is assigned to the category "Bob" it cannot be assigned to a second category "Software". But if each author typically writes on only one topic, then assigning each author their own category could work.

So that won't work. How about doing a search against a username? I tried to use the Lucence syntax to specify a field search but got no luck with that.
