I you want to display the screenname of the creator of a blog entry use ' $entry.creator.screenName' But you are right. In the the roller template guide: http://apache.speedbone.de/roller/roller-4/v4.0.1/docs/roller-template-guide.pdf the attribute screenName is not documented with the 'User' model. > > 2.
