Change author in db, but not reflected on frontend

Hi,

I've just migrated about 140 articles from one Joomla category into Easyblog. This worked fine.

I then wanted to change the author of all the Easyblog articles into another user, so using phpMyAdmin I change created_by in the xxx_easyblog_post database tables to the ID of the new user.

In the backend, in Easyblog -> Authors, the correct user is listed as authoring all the posts.

However, in the frontend, the author is displayed as the incorrect author (i.e. the one before the migration).

If, in the backend, I open a post and change the author, this is then correct on the frontend AND correct in the database tables.

However, all other Easyblog posts reflect the old (incorrect) author.

What have I missed please? I know I could workaround this by changing the author of the Joomla core articles before the migration, but it's an odd problem and I wanted to let you know.

Many thanks,

Dave.
