I am using the Blog to run a Newletter. I was going to let each of the 10 authors have their own Blog, sort of like a writers column in a newletter. But I also want to be able to add entries for them as the Admin when they are gone for vacation or whatever. I know I could log in as each user and do it. But I find I can Edit their entries when in my Admin account, just can't Add a new blog entry because it wants to creat it in my Admin Blog area.

Can I get around that? Not have to log in as them?

So what I did was make a "Newletter" user and creat the newsletter blog there and make 10 child logs. Now I cam log once as the Newsletter user and add to and child log. As can they. Which can be trouble if they delete blog instead of delete entry of something. They can wipe all 10 blogs out.

I love the Blog module. The search, the calendar, the attachments, etc..

Can I make it work as a Newsletter? Should I dump the 10 child idea and go back to 10 user parent blogs? I might do that if I could use my Admin account to add entries to the 10 user blogs like I can as the Newletter parent.

The trick is to use the "Add Blog Entry" in the action menu on the left upper corner of the view blog control instead the add blog entry link in the blogger menu.

BTW: In a future version some better solution will be implemented (Codename: Groupe Blogs)
