When I publish the post, it is showing my name as author of the post which is not intended and needs to be changed to my colleague's name. How can I change the name of the author in the blogs??

Currently I can only think of importing all the sheets into Excel and then running a macro to perform the task. Is there a simpler way offered by Zoho?
