My website is for a small monthly newspaper. We have many writers, they just send in articles and it is us who upload the articles to the website. In order to display the authors' information ( avatar, title, name etc.) I have to create a Joomla account for each one of them, which they will never use to login. This feels like a little redundant. I am aware there is a "Author Alias" field, but that won't help with displaying anything else but a name.

Is there a way to create authors that are not Joomla users?
Hi shenkwen,

There is no other way. If you don't want to use the author alias feature, then you have to create Joomla accounts to use as authors.
