How to get Wordpress to display author below title

Post by Luke »

Does anybody know how to get Wordpress to display the author of the article below the title of it? I looked around, but couldn't find it in settings anywhere. Is there something I have to do to the code? :?

wp-admin -> Presentation -> Theme Editor -> Main Index Template
<!-- by <?php the_author() ?> -->
remove the html comments.

note: I never use wordpress before, so there might be a more elgant/preferable solution
