Change Post Author in Ghost
When I moved this website from WordPress to Ghost earlier this year, I used their tool to import the posts in. What it did, it created a 2nd user and associated the posts with that user while keeping the Ghost author (The main one that I would use) as a separate user. I didn’t want…
