Plugin dir: changes to author profile name not reflected on plugin page

Description

When a plugin author changes the name or display name in their WordPress.org user profile, plugin pages continue to display the old name in the byline.

Expected: the plugin directory theme should always pull the current author name from the user profile.

  • Status changed from new to closed

The "By xyz" author byline is pulled from the plugins plugin file directly, for example see Line 10 of the Hello Dolly plugin.
