Ok, I'm using the latest nightly built, and perhaps I'm being a dolt here.... but:
When editing a post it turns it inot a draft, not wanted behavior reallly, but ok... however - there is no way of publishing the post again, it is removed totally and there is no way of getting it to display - no matter what you do to it.
This happens if you make a draft too, it just seems drafts are rather broken. This wouldn't be so much of a problem if it didn't turn edited posts into drafts....
Anyone have any clue how I can fix this? Or is it a known issue and I'm being dim?

I went into the database with phpMyAdmin and changed the post_status field from "draft" to "publish".

ick.. so it IS a known issue huh? Or is this just a bug with this latest build?
So far this is the only issue I've had with the build I may add... except I have no idea how to add themes as there is no example theme, or how to add themes into the "theme" directory (of which there is none, I had to add it manually - an example demo theme would make sense for release - maybe implement the "kubrik" style that way... or make the default the example). -

DarkCryst, are you talking about styles when you say themes? Check out my WP style switcher tutorial. :)

it seems there is a syntax error in line 13 of edit.php
correct is$editable = join(',', $editable);
instead of the wrong$editable = join($editable, ',');
but that doesn't bring the missing publish-button back... :-( -

Seems to be a bug with the last two nightlies:

i think this only happens when you have only one user.
well, in edit.php in line 12 there is an SQL statement:
$editable = $wpdb->get_col("SELECT ID FROM $wpdb->users WHERE user_level <= '$user_level' AND ID != $user_ID");
so when there is only the admin-user, ID = 1, this select results in an empty quere, the array cannot be joined and the known error occurs.
as soon as you add a second user the array contains values and the error is gone. -

as far as themes vs styles... no I was talking about the built in theme switcher 1.3 has, not a stylesheet switcher as your code seems to do (I know how to do that).
Mostly I just wanted to know what files and where to drop them for the theme so I get a description. I could just edit the existing one, but I'd like to have it as a seperate theme, code and all.
So yeah, not styles, themes :)
The "new user can publish" thing could solve my problem..
*checks*
yup! that solved it! :) Thanks to Bronski for that, so simple.. yet easy to miss at the same time. Hopefully this topic my provide some help to others... -

well, with this patch applied the setting mentioned above doesn't need to be set to "new users may publish" - great! thanks.

well I think, to reuse a phrase... its not a bug, its a feature.
The new user things makes sense, but really the default should be that they CAN publish, not that they can't... its not really wanted behavior otherwise. -
There is a bug in there, though, as I (admin) am not a new user and have a user_level of 10 but only get the option of "draft" and "private" - unless I am missing something.
