I am not very knowledgeable with PHP, but I am trying to make this plugin work with this theme.

https://wordpress.org/plugins/co-authors-plus/

The issue is the front-end part.

I am not sure where/how to do this on this theme. I thought I got it working, but it was putting “array” as the author on the posts instead of the two coauthors.

You’ll need to customize the theme function that displays the author(s):

if (function_exists('get_coauthors')):
function verbosa_posted_author() {
    $verbosa_meta_author = cryout_get_option( 'verbosa_meta_author' );

    if ($verbosa_meta_author) {
		
        $first = true;
        $output = '';
        foreach(get_coauthors() as $coauthor){
            if(!$first){
                $output .= ', ';
            } else {
                $first = false;				
            }
            $output .= sprintf( '<a class="url fn n" href="%1$s" title="%2$s"' . cryout_schema_microdata('author-url', 0) . '>
                        <em' .  cryout_schema_microdata('author-name', 0) . '>%3$s</em>	</a>',
                    get_author_posts_url( $coauthor->ID ),
                    sprintf( esc_attr( __( 'View all posts by %s', 'verbosa' ) ), $coauthor->display_name ),
                    $coauthor->display_name );
        };		
		
        echo sprintf(
            '<span class="author vcard"' . cryout_schema_microdata('author', 0) . '>
                <i class="icon-pen icon-metas" title="'.__("Author", "verbosa").'"></i> %1$s </span>',
            $output );
    }
} // verbosa_posted_author
endif;

Note that I did not test this code so it may be safer to include it and test it on a dev site.
