Post embedded in Slack shows the wrong author #109

Not sure if this is the correct place to report this because I've only got a hunch that this is the root cause of the issue, but...

On humanmade.com, when a blog post is embedded (e.g. via a link into Slack, but likely other places as well), the author that displays under the post excerpt is incorrect and does not reflect the post author on the blog post itself. I suspect this is the difference between the post_author and the Authorship author.

(If this is the wrong place, e.g. if it's not a bug in Authorship but something with the site, generally, consider this a bug report on the site. 😁)

This is likely going to be affected by the outcome of https://github.com/humanmade/authorship/issues/66 - Authorship template tags still have to be explicitly used for output so I guess they're not used for the meta tag output.

Same issue here is related to general incompatibility with Yoast SEO. I've started fixing it with https://github.com/humanmade/authorship-yoast, assuming that's in use in this instance, it will solve the problem.
