    Does anyone know how to add the Last Modified Author into the Genesis meta? I know the option is available in WordPress using <?php the_modified_author(); ?> and I've used the Code Snippet to adjust the post info (https://my.studiopress.com/snippets/post-info/), but can't work out how to get this piece of info to display.

    Create a custom short code using https://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/get_the_modified_author

    Go to genesis > lib > short codes > post.php to see how it's done.

    Brad's idea is excellent as usual!

    As a variation, here's a raw code example. You can use get_the_modified_author as well, depending on context, and that's what I did.

    Enjoy,
    Dave
