I am using WP 2.0. I installed a few plugins (Brian's Latest Comments and the default WordPress Database Backup) The Delete button associated with a post would not do anything. I would need to hit Edit then "Delete This Post" from the Edit screen to have a post deleted. Has anyone run into this issue and what's your solution?
Thanks in advance!

That's strange, I'd imagine an author would be able to delete his or her own post... I'll take a quick look now.
An author should be able to delete his/her own post. Are you confident that you are the author?
What I mean is, that like me, you may have two identities on your blog. One is the naturally the admin, the other may be a user with author rights.
If you published a post as admin, you as the second author should not be able to delete the post.
Admittedly a shot in the dark.

Yes it was a post from my author scoped account. So, when logged in under the author account I should be able to delete the post I created. In fact another author brought this to my attention (and thus my testing under my author account.) Again, I can delete that same post by going to the Edit screen and hit Delete This Post from there.
I'm out of shots even in the dark.
