Can I assign an author to an entry without creating a user?

[ad_1]

Hey everyone,

I’m working on a new project (an online literary translation magazine) and I was wondering if it’s possible to assign an author to an entry without having to go through the hassle of creating a username for every author. Our first number will include works from around thirty different people and it would be a pain in the ass having to create a username for everyone. Is there any way I can just freely type something in the “Author” field? Maybe with a plugin? I don’t need them to have their own profile or anything, I just need that the entry shows a specific name.

I’ve been writing on for a website using WordPress for years, but I’m a big of a noob when it comes to anything other than uploading content, so any help is very much appreciated!
