Sunray Author Manager is a versatile plugin for writers, allowing them to highlight their work in multiple formats.
The plugin can display covers of an author’s publications in a responsive carousel slider. The plugin can also display an author’s sorted bibliography.
There are many configurable options, including slider image size, slider speed, sorting by title and date, ascending and descending, and sorting of reprints.
All of the options are also accessible via simple shortcodes to include in your WordPress themes.
