Hello, I added the blog module to a page. I made a role called bloggers and added a user to the bloggers role.

the module inherits view permissions from the page (all users can view the page) and I checked edit module for bloggers (only way the create new blog part showed for a user). Next, I logged in as a user with the blogger role and I created an entry. it showed up in the most recent blog entries list. then I logged out. the entry disappears "there are no blogs in this portal". then I log in as the SAME user that created the blog and I get the SAME "there are no blogs in this portal"... the entry is gone. then I log in as host and I see all the entries ever made. is this a bug or am i doing something wrong?

Is there a work around for the disappearing edit?

 

It seems that there are lots of problems with that field... It not only gets updated when it shouldn't (the GMT timezone is always added), another problem is that when you choose different datetime formats for your blog, it does not only change the presentation format, it also affects the data written in the database.

I mean, if you choose to show a DD/MM/YYYY format, the hour, minute and second info is set to 0 in the database, so if in the future you want to change the format, that info is lost. It should always store all the datetime info, and the presentation layer should manage the format.
