Just to make sure I'm clear on your issue: 

You have users with EDIT rights for the Blog administration module who are creating their own individual blogs (via "Create My Blog" option) and, when posting to their own blogs, are having "admin admin" reported as the entry author.

Is that accurate, or are you somehow having multiple users posting to the same blog rather than creating and posting to their own individual blogs?

Also:  You have not yet shared the version number of the Blog module you're using (the version of DNN you're using could be helpful, too).

Also also:  If this is a working, online DNN site with any blogs open to the public, could you provide a link to a blog where this is happening?  If the blogs are private, could you create a test user account and create a test blog with a few entries for us to see?

DNN Version: 04.08.04

Blog Version: 03.05.00

The have a single blog for the site that they allow anyone in their admin group to post to.  The blog can be seen at 'http://www.signs.org/Default.aspx?tabid=203' but I have actually hidden the creator information until I solve this problem.  I know it makes it hard to help but unfortunately they are unwilling to let me create any extra accounts.  At this point they are ok with the workaround I have implemented and it is more of a Geek pride thing now.  I was hoping someone might have seen this before and know exactly what was wrong.  Thanks for trying!

The current version of the Blog supports one user per blog.  The username shown is the "owner" of the blog, not the person who posts.

If you want each person to be able to post, what you want is to create individual blogs for each person who will post.  Then their usernames will show up as the poster.

In a future version of the blog we are considering allowing multiple people or members of a group to post to a given blog.

Hope this helps for now!

Hi Michele,

are you trying to hide the blog presentation or the author's name in all the entries?

Best regards,
Dario Rossa
