JoeUser Confusion

Lost Blogger...Help

October 7, 2006 3:14:53 PM from JoeUser ForumsJoeUser Forums

I'm sorry Admins, but I'm very confused as to many of the features of the JU interface.

1) Why do I not have the permissions to edit my own blog entries?

 

2) Why do I not have the permissions to add a blog group?

I guess what I am asking, is what permissions to I need to achieve these things, and what do I need to do to aquire the permissions to do these things?

I haven't experienced any problem editing my blogs. You can't edit comments after someone has posted in response, which is when people normally see the first one. I recognize the error message, but maybe we could be more help if we knew which link led you to them.

Mr Baker

In the case of #1, if I try to edit an article after its been published; just after clicking the send. So it may be possible that another user is on that article as I try to edit it? I just dont understand the permission message.

In the case of #2, clicking on My Account/Create a joeuser blog group. You see the picture, more permission denials. The thing is its intermittent. One minute I will have permissions, the next I wont.

I guess Im having a hard time knowing what I can and cannot do, and I find little in the way of documentation...its confusing the heck out of me. Am I just being lame?

A couple of old timers have had problems with that one.

As for the first one, have you gone to www.joeuser.com, and clicked on my articles and tried to edit there?

Also, on the "My Account Management" page, under the Select Site & Option To Edit section, sometimes I have 3 options, sometimes 5. As it stands now, I cannot put links onto my page.

I hope im being clear. Please tell me if I am not.

You admins, please feel free to log on to my account and have a look.

Yep, I have found 3 paths if I remember to edit an article...at times, none work.

Doc, if you have the permissions, go ahead and have a look

I'm afraid it might be like when your cable connection goes down, then works fine when the tech arrives to have a look

Nope.  And neither do the admins.  I am just a lowly user.

Also, sometimes when I click on "MY Blog" i see the "Page Views" and other times not.

Dont think Im being wierd or anything. Today is my 1 month anniversary, and I should be able to navigate the site well. I just dont know what Im supposed to see and what Im not?

I figure Im on my own with all this. Chalk it up to coding issues. If only I new the proper place to post these anomalies, perhaps they might get fixed.

Thanks for your help guys

I don't really know, Xythe. Where are you hitting the edit button, on your blog on in the forums? I have no problems editing on the blog, and my wife doesn't seem to have problems editing hers and she's a (1) too. There's something more to it, but only you really have the power to bang around on your account and figure it out.
