How do I disable the “by author” hyperlink on posts?
Look for single.php in your theme directory. There you should find the_author(), you can remove that to remove a reference to the author. You will be able to find all your answers in the codex, by the way.
Select From wpdb – Author/User Directory page
You’re probably better off to use get_users which returns an array of <?php // get all users, regardless of roll.

Inline-Table under TwentyTwelve not working
It’s because the TwentyTwelve theme has “clear: both;” set on H3 tags, which messes up the layout. Try adding this CSS: #authorlist h3 { clear: none !important; }

Conditional For get_the_author_meta
get_the_author_meta() returns the data for use in PHP. To display the information instead, use the_author_meta() http://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/get_the_author_meta Your code does not echo data even if it is present. Add an echo or use the_author_meta <?php if(get_the_author_meta(‘twitter’) ): ?> <a href=”https://www.twitter.com/<?php echo get_the_author_meta(‘twitter’); ?>” target=”_blank”>Twitter</a></p> <?php else: ?> <strong>No website</strong> <?php endif; ?>
