my version is 2.1 ..
everything was fine and my friend signed up at my blog with author permission - she wrote a few posts - then i logged in today as an admin and try to post and her name keeps showing up as the author of my posts, i have to keep putting her account as a subscriber for my name to show on my own posts... btw we're on different computers
please help

I just had a problem like this as well.
A friend just subscribed, then I changed his role to Author. Now when I log in as admin and post, it attributes the post to him.
any ideas on this?

Update: the Post Author box in the Create New Post option of the admin panel was selecting a user other than me when i posted.
the problem seems to have happened when i typed in a nickname for myself in my profile (instead of "admin" showing when i post). for some reason the Post Author box didn't register my nickname.
When i erased my nickname so that I am only known as admin, the Post Author box had "admin" as a possible selection.
so the original problem is fixed.
now the question is what is the nickname snafu?
