   Maybe I'm not understanding the instructions on how Amen operates. If so, then it is my fault.

   I placed the shortcode [amen] and [amen_manage] on the same page where I want the prayers to be shown and logged in users to be able to post prayer requests.

   When someone posts a request via the form, the request appears twice. If the page is refreshed, the prayer is again doubled. If I remove the [amen_manage] shortcode and delete the duplicates everything seems to work fine using the Dashboard Amen to enter requests.

   For the record, I am using the Atahualpa Version 3.7.10 theme. My browser is Firefox latest version.

   The [amen] shortcode is used to list prayer requests. It accepts the following parameters:

   • page="page-id" - Lists prayers tagged for specific page
   • author="username(s)" - Lists prayers authored by specific user (comma-separated list of authors accepted)
   • recent="#" - Lists certain number of most recent prayers
   • header="your-header" - Gives a header to the prayer list

   If no parameters are passed, then the full list of prayers is shown.

   The [amen_manage] shortcode allows a front end management experience for users. This is the same code that is used on the backend admin page. It contains a list of all prayer requests authored by the current logged-in user, or all requests (for admin).

   These shortcodes do not and probably should not be on the same page. Does that help?

   Yes, that helps. I was thinking that both shortcodes should not be on the same page. Thanks for comfirming that. Now to figure out how to set a page for logged in viewers to add requests ... or maybe I'll just require them to use the dashboard menu.

   Thanks!

   i am using role scoper to manage security. However, it's pretty heavy. i think the plugin may hide the management form if users are not logged in ... maybe ... can't remember. :) So, resolved?
