Well, it looks like christmas has come a little early for Joomlapolis! JoomlaJoe, the founder of the Community Builder suite has given us a very nifty (and small) mambot that converts the authors name to a link back to the authors CB profile. The zip file is located in the add-ons area of this site (and also in the project area on the joomla! developers site) and is installable as a mambot. This mambot is currently operational on this site!

Lets thank him by responding to this thread and wishing him and his family happy holidays!
