Title: Change author of entry within Craft Client licence
ThreadText: # Change author of entry within Craft Client licence
  
  (Asked by: username_0 on 2014-06-20)
  
  I created some sample blog posts during development, and now want to change the author of those posts to the client. Yet, only I'm listed in the dropdown box when I try and change an entry's author.
  
  Any ideas? Besides editing it in the database.
