    You'll add it this code right after <? $content_columns = array_keys($Book->getContentColumns()); ?>

    <label>_{Author}:</label> <span class="static">{book.author.name?}</span><br />

    Adding this code appeared to make no difference.

    This code as far a I can remember is added on scaffolded listings when the scaffold is generated and the model columns can't be fetched.

    That allows looking though existing columns

    <td class="field"><?php  echo  $course->get($content_column) ?></td>

    and showing their values.

    That is OK for showing a variable set of columns, but most times we can hand code the columns we really need, in that case

    <label>_{Author}:</label> <span class="static">{book.author.name?}</span><br />

    will suffice you

    There were several changes called for in order to include the authors in the books show. AFAIK, I've made them all. As you indicated, I changed show.tpl to look like the following:

      <div class="show">
    <?php  $content_columns = array_keys($Book->getContentColumns()); ?>
      <label>_{Author}:</label> <span class="static">{book.author.name?}</span><br />
    {loop content_columns}
      <label><?php  echo  $text_helper->translate($text_helper->humanize($content_column))?>:</label> <span class="static"><?php  echo  $book->get($content_column) ?></span><br />
    {end}
  </div>

    I tried moving the <label>_{Author... line after the {loop content_columns}, but that didn't cause http://alan.lakeinfoworks.com/booklink/?ak=book to show the list of books with the author either. Am I looking at the wrong page?

    The booklink tutorial does now tech you how to show the author on the listing.

    I was not aware about it and Shtriter sent an appendix explaining how to achieve it.

    That ticket will be fixed soon by the core team
