Hi there,

I am having a problem with posting a story on my site.

When I go to post a story I get a screen like:
http://benjudson.com/admin.gif (Sorry couldn't make this an image tag in this forum)
Admin Pic

When a user goes to post they are getting a screen like this:
http://benjudson.com/user.gif (Again.. with the could make an image)
User Pic

What's up with this? Have I missed setting an option?

I want my users to get the same screen as me.

Currently my users cannot post pics or seperate their posts between intro and body.

running Geeklog-1.4.0-rc1

Thanks,

Astrogen

Only users with the story.edit permission get the extended version of the story editor. Usually, those are the users in the Story Admin group, but you can assign that permission to any other group if you like.

However, keep in mind that that will let them edit other people's stories (depending on how story and topic permissions are set) and that their stories would be published immediately instead of ending up in the submission queue.

In other words: It's not possible to let normal users add pictures to their posts (my just released Flickr plugin may provide an alternative solution, though).

bye, Dirk
