To add a user as author of his/her post I added him/her as an author with the lovely members plugin.
Alas, when clicking the dropdown menu for the author in the edit screen of the post (edit screen as admin) I don’t see the author I added.
Help me get the added author(s) listed in the author dropdown.
Much appreciated and thank you,
Mark
]]>I need to do this with php, because it must happen automatically. This reassignment of authors must occur upon a certain event that I am currently hooking into. Meaning, I don’t want to be doing this in the Dashboard.
I can’t find anything on google.
]]>First I created a new user (let’s call it “USER2”), gave it superadmin privileges, removed superadmin privileges from USER1, removed USER1 from the site. So far, so good.
Now I want to assign USER2 as the author of the posts written by USER1 and then delete USER1. I tried deleting USER1, thinking that WP will ask me to migrate the author of the posts from USER1 to USER2 but it remains there! Any suggestions?
cheers
