  1. I have set up our site - put beginning posts up so we could announce it. As I've been showing the page authors how to do things I've been changing their pages so it shows they are the author of the page.

    Today I added a new author and changed one page so it will be her page to maintain - but now when I go to do this there is no pull down menu showing me the names of the different people.

    Suggestions to help me?

  2. Are you talking about in the Wordpress dashboard where it says "Post Author"? Were you logged in as an administrator or as a writer? This will change what users can see within the dashboard.

    And what's your URL?

  3. YOu also have to make sure they have the proper user status. If they are only a subscriber their name won't appear. You have to make them and author, editor or contributer for their name to appear in the drop down. And you have to be logged on as admin.
