  2. Navigate to the WordPress Dashboard and select “Posts” from the menu on the left side.
  3. Select all posts by clicking the checkbox next to the “Title” column header.
  4. From the “Bulk Actions” dropdown menu, select “Edit.”
  5. In the “Author” section, select the desired author from the dropdown menu.
