Show CB content in override was created by rbuelund

I have made an override of the com_content -> default_articles.php (list of articles in category)
I have inserted:

Code:

<?php echo "<strong>Opdrætter:</strong> " . JHtml::_('content.prepare', '[name]') . "<br/>"; ?>

to show the name of the author of the article (author is set in the CB content plugin)

When I am logged in on the site the name is shown correctly, but when I am not logged in it onlys shows the tag: [name]
I need the name to be shown also when no user is logged in.

Replied by krileon on topic Show CB content in override

CB Content Bot substitutions are always against the viewing user. So you either need to specify that the user should be the author or you need to reconfigure the plugin to be against the article user. Below should work to always render author name.

[cb:userdata field="name" user="[article_created_by]" /]
