    Anybody have the foggiest why I can't get the damned thing to put my name on my post? It puts the name of the most recently-added registered person. When I try to change it I am not even offered my name (the sole admin guy) as an option.

    'm sure there's a switch in there somewhere but I can't find it.

    Help!

    OK. This is not a hack. This is definitely a bug, because this is how bugs act. I once had a guy in my group who modified a program and suddenly everybody whose last name began with a letter of the alphabet got all the commission checks for everybody whose last name started with the same letter provided he was the first occurrence of that letter group.

    That's a bug.

    Well, now, when I do a blog post, the person allowed to do blog posts whose name appears first alphabetically gets tagged on the post as the author. It doesn't matter who is logged in at the time. I have logged in as admin, as editor, it doesn't matter. when I do a post it gets flagged as the first (alphabetically) entity in the file.

    Hah! You guys owe me one. Oh, wait... I'm using your blogging platform for free. Nevermind.

    This might be the cause. It had me scratching my head for a while too.
