Steps:

1. Install WordPress and Annotum and leave all settings unchanged.
2. Create and publish an article
3. View the article, and click the author name.

> Expected

- Author profile appears, followed by listing containing the article, URL is similar to http://authorlistfixed.annotum.net/author/annotum2go/

> Actual

- Nearly-blank page with heading "Recent Posts" appears with url similar to http://authorlist.annotum.net/?author=1

> Workaround:

1. Go to Dashboard > Settings > Permalinks
2. Select any permalinks other than the default, e.g. Month and Name:

![Screen Shot](http://authorlistfixed.annotum.net/author/annotum2go/)

This will generate a .htaccess file and enable mod_rewrite so that the author listing URL (permalink style) works.
