Hacks with multiple authors

When checking for hacks by a specific author, hacks where they are listed as one of several authors do not show up. Similarly, when clicking on the "Author" of a hack with multiple users listed, only other hacks with the same combination of authors show up. This could probably be fixed by splitting the author's name whenever there is a comma and a space, treating each name as a separate author. Then, make the search bar search for any hack that has that author's name in it, as opposed to the exact same (Not case sensitive) combination of characters, and search for every author when a combination of names is clicked on, having hacks by all of the authors pop up.

Good suggestion.  This is now implemented, for both Hacks and Resources.

Clicking on a single author name will now show all submissions by that author, including collaborations, as long as the site can figure out that it's supposed to be a list (using commas and/or the word "and" are the most typical).

Clicking on a collab author list will now show all submissions by any of the indiividual authors in that list, as well as collabs involving any of them.
