 * Yep – I select that and it does use the users registered _username_ and displays
   this at the bottom of the post.
 * What it doesn’t do use the name that the user has selected as their _Public display
   name_In their user profile.
 * In my case the _username_ is their email address and their _public display name_
   is _first last. _
 * For the moment I’ve configured it so the user has to provide their name in the
   form, and this displays correctly in the post. Though this means all the posts
   are actually made by the same user – just the display name is different.
 * Cheers
    Simon

 * Messed around with the DD_Roles plugin creating custom user roles an it appears
   the user requires ‘Edit others pages’ and ‘Edit published pages’ permissions 
   to upload images via USC. Though not to upload via WP admin.
 * No idea why, but I suspect the clue is in this post – [http://mikekelly.myblog.arts.ac.uk/2013/04/25/tracking-down-a-wordpress-bug/](http://mikekelly.myblog.arts.ac.uk/2013/04/25/tracking-down-a-wordpress-bug/)
 * I’m using the Attitude theme.
 * Anyway it seems to work for me at the moment, as my pages are secured I’m not
   to worried about the slightly relaxed permissions ATM. But curious as to the 
   cause.
 * Cheers
    Simon
