{{post_author}} is not showing preferred name (Post Page Header)

I have no idea where to look to fix this.
I created a post header and set the content to:
<h1>{{post_title}}</h1>
<div>{{post_date}} by {{post_author}}</div>When I go view the post it is showing the authors username and not the preferred name set in their user profile.
Example of what I get:

How can I fix this?
Hi there,
Can you link me to the page?
Thanks!
Hi there,
It should get the nickname of the user - is that field filled out?
Tom,
Having same issue. That template tag displays the author's username (for login purposes). What we want it to do is display the author's full name -- in my case, the one that's selected in the 'Display name publicly as' dropdown in the User editor.
I believe it currently uses the nickname for some reason - let me see if there's something I can tweak to use the dropdown option value.
That would be great, Tom. Thanks.
