Wordpress Plugin to List Posts by Author

Was wondering if someone can recommend a WP plugin that will list all posts
by a single author?

The goal is to give each author their own page (or set of pages) with a list of previous posts.

All of the plugins I have found are older ones.... My current plan is to create a category for each author but there must be a better way.

Thanks!

    Mmmm - the category thing would work. Check to see if your site has the author.php file like this: Traci Knoppe - Wordpress Training Note: admin is the author username in this example.

    So was there a plugin that you found that does this function @Chris Gable? I am confused from reading what you and @tknoppe concluded. The link above doesn't take me to any kind of "Wordpress Training". Thanks!

      There was no plugin required... my site already had an author.php file which supported my requirement.... All you have to do is create a link to a page that looks like thisne... http://nicetightash.com/author/chris/

      Just be sure to place the author's name at the end of the url and you will be good to go.

      Hope that makes sense!

        Thanks Chris. The above posts make much more sense now and I too have the author.php.
