Hi,

Am trying to create a blog post and assign it to a new user but the system won't allow it. They are registered and should be able to be assigned as blog creator under the ACL. Any ideas why this is happening?

Cheers, Dave
Hi David,

Correct me if I'm wrong here, do you mean you want the register user can change the author of the blog post as shown here: http://take.ms/IsuHa ?
If yes, you can enable it in the setting:
ACL>select joomla group(registered)>Enable Moderate All Entries In Dashboard : http://take.ms/z5KES

Thanks Fadhli,

The ability to assign users to be an author is currently working. Unfortunately, there is one specific user that should appear under the author type who does not appear. This user is in the same profile type as all the others.

Seems like a number of the newer users can't be added as author. Users who signed up a long time ago can be added though.

Hi David,

For searching user it seems it will search by name instead of username http://take.ms/DQBMw

Sure thing David

As a gentle reminder, kindly start a new thread if you have any other issue in the future so it will be easier for us to manage your inquiry. I will lock and mark this thread as resolved.
