Publishing snafu
Not long ago, I upgraded phonoloblog to WordPress 1.5. A positive upgrade overall, but as Geoff Pullum has noted several times over on Language Log, upgrades are sometimes also downgrades. The result in this case was that all registered phonoloblog authors were downgraded to mere “user” status (except me, because I’m not only an author, I’m also the owner). Basically, this meant that most if not all users couldn’t publish posts directly. I’ve now fixed this, I think, but let me know if I didn’t — and my apologies if you’ve been wanting to publish a post and found that you could only save a measly draft.
Well, let me try posting a comment, and see if that ‘takes’.

The ability to comment was unaffected, I think … actual posts were the problem (and no longer appear to be).

I had trouble posting from home before, but now I see the “publish” button. Keep on rockin in the free world, Eric.
