2) Change the user to subscriber.

Thanks for the reply. I have a question. So if I change user to subscriber, then nobody can post an article as an author right?
But also I still don’t understand how someone can post as admin?

Correct. Please try this & monitor the site for a few days to see if this solves the problem.

Please be patient with replies. The forum is made up of volunteers, and sometimes we’re busy with the paying jobs 🙂
If you change ALL users to subscribers (except yourself), only you can post articles.
Call me paranoid but for my non-membership sites, I don’t allow any users to register. For guests authors, I post the article for them, which takes me a few minutes.
Then I’m paranoid too because that’s exactly what I’ve always done in the past.
Then that makes 3. Because I do the same thing
