govepatel, yes, I’m sure. I’m already showing all posts on the home page. I wish to show only post excerpts from a particular category on this page, hence the page template.

Thanks. I’ve checked into all that and I’ve managed to get the excerpts to show, but the issue I’m having now is that it shows the excerpts followed by a second round of all posts in the category displayed in full. Here’s the amended code that I’m using:

<?php query_posts('category_name=news&showposts=999'); ?>
<?php if (have_posts()) : while (have_posts()) : the_post(); ?>
    <h2 style="padding-top:24px"><a href="<?php the_permalink()?>"><?php the_title()?></a></h2>
    <?php the_excerpt(); ?>
<?php endwhile; endif; ?>

I’m not sure why it’s posting the articles twice, once as an excerpt and then a second time as a full article, but I just want the excerpt. Any idea what’s causing this?

update: the posts are showing up in the queue, but not getting automatically published. I’ve tried manually installing:

<iframe src="http://www.yourdomainname.com/wp-mail.php" name="mailiframe" width="0" height="0" frameborder="0" scrolling="no" title=""></iframe>

(with my domain inserted), and I’ve also tried installing the plugin “Email Post Activation” (here) to do the job. What am I missing here?

Just completed fresh installs of 3.0.4 and 3.1. Issue is still here for me.

Update: I just upgraded a test site I have from 3.0.4 to 3.1, and the issue is still there…

Yes, I can replicate it. I have a handful of 3.0.4 installs, all with Twenty Ten, and it’s the same with each. Not the case in older sites that I have live.

Thank you for your help.

The problem I’m having is the editor account can add new media and view media in the library, but they cannot edit or delete media. I’d like the editor account to have those options.
