 * I would absolutely like this feature. Can’t even count how many times it’s kept
   ME from sending a bad email address! And if it checks even close to 50% of the
   submissions, that’s very helpful.

 * Would bribery help? I’m just guessing that someone else on the planet has wanted
   to collect the name of all their posters in order to send an email to them?

 * mrcbrown, thank you. I just installed a brand-spanking new version of WP on a
   brand new blog today and, like the rest of you, was baffled that the Post Author
   was gone. Your fix worked.
 * Hope this gets fixed soon, though. Pretty old bug to be lurking about.

 * Michael, that’s how I’d LIKE to see them, but they are listed (in the same area
   you mention) like I wrote above.
 * Two questions:
 * Do you have more than one page of users?
 * Did you enter ALL the admins BEFORE you had more than one full page of total 
   users?
 * As I said, it seems to FIRST use ID to determine the overall order and to set
   which page each item will be on. THEN it sorts each page by roll.
 * So, if I have 200 users and then add an admin (or author), it will end up on 
   the LAST page, even thought he other admins are on the front page (because they
   were added first). If I add three admins after I have 200 users, they will all
   end up on the last page, but grouped together–rather than with all the other 
   admins on the first page.

 * BTW, articles that are published with a postdate, do not ever post to my site,
   unless I manually republish them.
 * Any ideas?

 * Thanks, Jeremy. I’ll check on that.
 * When I looked it up, it said Mountain DAYLIGHT time is -6 and Mountain STANDARD
   time is -7. Did I misread?

 * Didn’t ever get the pretty links to work. Finally tried the almost pretty links
   and that works. Wish I knew why because I prefer not to have the additional “
   baggage” in the URL.
 * .htaccess is writabe. mod_rewrite is enabled.
 * Anyone have a clue?

 * Lysander, thanks for your expertise. The first time I entered it without the 
   class info, it didn’t indent. But now it is, so I must have missed something 
   else.
 * Textwidget? That code isn’t mine. I edited the Credits widget from within WP.
   This is all the code that’s there:
 *     ```
       <ul>
       <li>Blog by <a href="http://www.wordpress.org">Wordpress</a></li>
       <li>Forums by <a href="http://lussumo.com/">Lussumo</a></li>
       <li>Theme by <a href="http://www.wpthemes.info">Sadish</a>
       </li>
       </ul>
       ```
   
 * It seems to be working correctly now.
 * Again, thanks so much for your input. The moral of the story is, don’t code at
   4:00 am.

 * Link one says, “You are not using mod_rewrite.”
 * Link two goes to a 404 error page.
 * Guess I have to check that tonight.

 * I found out one thing this morning. The link does NOT redirect when I have default
   permalinks. When I try to use a different permanlink structure, all the [links on the page break](http://wordpress.org/support/topic/115894?replies=6),
   ACCEPT the page link. It starts going directly to the forum again, as it should.
 * Please, any ideas?
