In the Options\/General section, I did NOT select the option to let any registered users write posts.  However, it so happens that my users CAN write posts.  I definitely do not want this.  How do I fix the situation so that readers have no authority to do that?  Is this a known issue?  It may have been asked before, I just haven&#8217;t found the answer.  Does this have anything to do with the view level I assign to a user?  My understanding is that setting a user&#8217;s level of reading does not give them writing authority.  Please help!
