    Hiya

    I'm creating a site using wordpress that lets users login as Authors and post their own posts.

    I've managed to find plugins to hide the majority of the dashboard, and some of the links etc.

    However, when they click on Edit Posts it shows them every post written by other Authors. They're unable to edit these but I want it so that the only posts shown to them are their own.

    Is there a plugin that lets you do this?

    Thanks,
    Emma

    Hi Emma,
    I wonder if this might work for you:
    http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/role-scoper/

    Permissions are always a tricky thing to deal with. The big one that I run into is that many plugin authors only code for Admins, so you can't have, say, a user perform a calendar function without making them a full admin, and thus giving them the ability to trash your whole site if they get frisky.

    Cheers, Dave
