Authors' names order inverted
-
I published an article in partnership with another person. I’m the author and this person the co-author. In the first article versions, the author's name (my name) was shown first. But after some updates, the co-author’s name and his picture started being displayed in first place. I tried to update the article several times, adding comments to the editors, explaining it, but there was no result. I tried to remove the co-author, and then added it again in a new update, but it did not work either. The article: Developing a Private Network Connection iOS App exploring OpenVPN Protocol Could someone help me to fix it?

Thanks very much for your message. Unfortunately, we are unable to change the order. Author order is decided by member ID number, and is something we cannot change. The only way to achieve this would be to remove the co-author and place a bio in the article itself. Or possibly to create a new CodeProject account that has a higher ID number, but I would like to test this out first to see if it works.

The author id (my id) is 9465228. The co-author is 11051825. (mine is older). Strange, beacuse the order switched during the article updates. In first revisions my name was displayed first. When I'm editing and click in "preview" or when I save a draft, the order is shown correctly, but after publish it changes.

I tried to create a new user and added it to the article but not worked. This new one became the last shown. I start to think that order is related to member reputation.

It does appear that way. Unfortunately reputation can't be manipulated, only created organically. I think the only way to achieve what you want is to include the other author's bio in the body of the article itself.
