Instead of adding the post date to the wp_get_archives list, how can I add the author name for that particular archived post instead? So, author name: post title. e.g. Mick Brown: My First Post Any help would be much appreciated! I second number 21′s question…

Does anyone know if this is something I can fix by editing the plugin? Or my stylesheet perhaps? Thanks for the plugin and the help.

This plugin merely changes the behavior of the wp_get_archives function to report data already available to the function. Not that it couldn't be done, but I'm not going to do it right now. Maybe someone will pick up on this and add that functionality, though. Getting the number of comments would require a separate query to the database.
