  • I’ve been using Category Posts Widget (http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/category-posts/). So far, so good.

    This plugin looks promising. But after I installed it …. I don’t know what to do. There is no instruction available.

    For those who have successfully activated and are already using this plugin, can you provide us with some guidance how to use this? Otherwise, it’s a shame to have a plugin that could be quite useful to so many go unused.

    I tried this — didn’t work.

    Anybody else know how to do this?

    I encountered this same problem. What I discovered was that the issue is browser-related, or at least I solved it by using a different browser.

    It didn’t work in FF and Chrome for some reason, but I had no problems saving the entries in IE8 and Opera.

    The sites I’ve installed and activated them on are not live yet (they’re under ‘maintenance mode’), so I’m not sure what the behaviour will be like (ie if the browser problem will go away) once they do go live.

    I assume the objectives here are twofolds: (a) privacy – user is not privy to who is writing what (at least not in a unified way … ie in one spot … as the author’s name will be on each post, if allowed for by the site owner); and (b) security – user can only post in his/her name.

    You can already achieve both of these objectives using two existing plugins.

    For (a), you can use Scott Reilly’s Custom Admin Post Listing (you have to go to his site, as it is not available in WordPress.org).

    For (b), Jordi Canals’ Capability Manager plugin is the tool you need.

    So, no single plugin to meet both of your objectives. But there are two existing plugins that will produce the same outcome.

    Viper007Bond’s WordPress Admin Bar plugin will show the admin bar on every page that a logged in user (like your Editor) views on your site.

    If s/he wants to edit anything on the page s/he is on, s/he only needs to click Edit this on the admin bar (for Post or Page) and s/he’s home free to do so.

    Hope this helps. Maybe not exactly what you had in mind, but works just as well to solve your problem. I think.
