Occasionally, we need to be able to change the author on a WordPress post from the default profile we loaded the post with, to something that makes more sense for the given situation. This can happen for many reasons, loading a guest author post, or just loading a post for someone else either because they don’t know how or don’t care to learn. Sometimes, we even want to change the author of the post to be our company, rather than our individual profile.
