I have a custom user role on my website "reviewer" of which one can view an archive page, just like a normal author, where published posts are attributed to that user and displayed in archive format.

The trouble is, the custom user hasn’t "published" posts. I am adding a reference to them from posts using a custom field "reviewed_by".

What would be an approach for attributing posts referencing a "reviewer" type user role such that the standard archive display for that user would show the posts that reference the user, even though they haven’t actually "published" those posts?

In simple terms; I’d like to piggyback on existing templates as much as possible such that I can show all the posts a user has "reviewed" in the standard archive format.

Thanks
