When you log in as an author, it will allow you to post a title, but there is no area or submit button for body of article, you can input title only. I have re installed several times. I am not new to word press or this plugin.

I am having the same problem - no article body box to enter anything, is this a wp version issue?
here is the solution for you
the current version of wordpress is causing the issue...
download version 3.1.4 and start again
everything will work
Does not matter version of word press
Go to your word press dashboard.
Scroll down to "setting" and click on "Articles Directory" plungin.
On the next window scroll down to the configuration window "Submit Article page options".
On the "Show text editor" check box choose the option "no".
Save setting
You now should be sorted.

Will this fix work on the most updated wordpress? Or should I leave it downgraded to 3.1.4?
I am using the latest version 3.2.1
It works just fine.
Try it on your own verison.....it should work!
The Articles Directory plugin Requires WordPress Version: 2.9 or higher.
I don't see why it should not work for you.
spartan58 Thank you for your post.

I had this exact problem for about a month and it has been driving me mad.
I've installed different versions of wordpress, article theme and plugin several times to no avail.
Turned texy editer off, instantly worked.
Very Grateful
Glad your sorted!
I have attempted this fix without success, I have 3.21 wordpress running, should I switch out of this, any other ideas...thanks
the site I am trying to fix is http://www.amazingarticles.com
thanks for the help!
Did you turn off the text editor as Constantine suggested?
Yes, I turned this off as directed an still not able to post new articles.
I just tried to register to try and I got this message
ERROR: Banned IP address.
ERROR: Registration stopped by Sabre
My ip was on spamhaus PBL as my 'SMTP AUTHENTICATION' was not turned on!
I'll have to get it removed
I was able to register without problem.
Tried to post article but as mentioned only title input option avalible and missing submit button.
So I would deactivate the "article directory" plugin and then continue to delete it completly.
Then I would reinstall the plugin and try from scratch.
This will not effect your theme or users, so don't be afraid to try.
ok, I will try deactivating the plugin and see if we can bring it back 2 life...thanks
tried 2 deactivate and then reactivate, did not work, back 2 square 1...is there a way to turn back the clock on my wordpress version?
I am saying to deactivate and then delete it completly.
In order to delete you need to deactivate.
Then find or if you have the plugin upload it in the admin dashboard plugin and reinstall.
yes, I did deactivate and delete, then reinstalled and it did not work :(
And of course you have set the setting corectly?
In the article directory "Submit Article" page options.
ID of author panel page: The # of the authors page id
Show text editor: NO
????
yes, screenshot here
After looking at your pages source code I can see that you have installed plugs that deal with different languges as input texts and spell checker.
This might be effecting your authors page from performing correctly.
I don't think the developers of this article theme have gone as far as excepting such changes.... after all it is a realy simply built theme for free. Could be only made for english input.
Just a stab in the dark.... but try removing and playing around with these plugs.
Aslo I noticed some duplicate scripts running. For instance on your "all in one SEO" scripts the "canonical" page redirects runs twice.
<link rel='canonical' href='http://www.amazingarticles.com/author-page/' />
<!-- All in One SEO Pack 1.6.7 by Michael Torbert of Semper Fi Web Design[160,205] -->
<link rel="canonical" href="http://www.amazingarticles.com/author-page/" />
<!-- /all in one seo pack -->
this is for google but might be effecting which page shows up to your authors.... another stab in the dark try to disable this feature from seo "canonical" un check. But I don't beleve the problem is there anyway.
good luck!
I'm struggling to alter simple things on this theme.
idebars have much more in them then shown on widget pages, or they widget coded in?
How do I limit mot recent articles at bottom of page?
On your admin dashboard scrol to "appearance" and select "editor"
On the next window on the right side select "main index template"
Now you will see the code scripts of your main page.
half way down you will see the line:
<?php wp_get_archives('type=postbypost&limit=30'); ?>
edit the limit=30 to the amount of post you want shown
for instance if you want only 10 posts, then it will read like this
<?php wp_get_archives('type=postbypost&limit=10'); ?>
When done just click the "update file" button.
good luck
.
I'll try that thank you
I have reverted to the wp interface for the time being until the plugin creator has addressed this issue, the only thing I noticed when comparing my site to a working wp site was on line 82 of the coding 2 extra pieces of JS coding, but could not find in the WP area to remove and see if this may fix it..
<script type='text/javascript' src='http://www.amazingarticles.com/wp-admin/js/utils.js?ver=20101110'></script>
<script type='text/javascript' src='http://www.amazingarticles.com/wp-admin/js/editor.js?ver=20110411'></script>
I don't think the plugin creator is supporting this plugin any more. At the bottem of the plugin page just below the comments is this message.
Further development and support for Article Directory Plugin and Theme is stopped.
you can find that here

Bummer, hopefully someone with some coding skills will step in and create something more reliable as this appears to be a large market in wordress for this plugin, thanks for the help guys/gals!
I have the same bug like you both.
It's a conflict between the last version of WordPress and the plugin.
Of course you can deactivate the visual editor but i want to keep it.
I don't want to downgrade my WordPress version so i wait for a better plugin.

Hi spartan58
I have had trouble getting author page to show the text box. I have looked at the code. I understand HTML but lose it with PHP.
Your post explaining "On the "Show text editor" check box choose the option "no"."
Wow I've spent hours trying to solve the problem. Here with the click of one option it's solved.
Thanks very much for your help
