2.2.5. Changing a Blog Author

To change the name of the author of a blog, run:

blaze-config user.name full_name

This name appears in the copyright notice, and is used as the default author for a new blog post or page. However, if you prefer to keep the full name in the copyright notice only, you can specify a nickname by using the following command:

blaze-config user.nickname nickname

Additionally, you can supply an email address to allow readers to contact the blog author directly:

blaze-config user.email email_address

The changes will take effect the next time you run the blaze-make command.
