individual author pages edit ability

  • wp 1.5

    I’m not sure if this would be possible, but I thought I’d ask.

    What I’d like is to have different authors be able to do the following:
    Write post in Draft Form
    Edit only their Author “about” page

    Is this possible without changing how wordpress interprets the User Levels? The default levels give too much access for the things I’d like …

  • Level 1 authors should only be able to:

    Create posts in draft or private status
    Edit only their profile
    View the Dashboard

    Yes, but the thing is, can I get their profile info to show on a Page?

    And have additional information?

    That’s not quite what I see asked for above… Here’s one way:

    Then you can generate a list of links to your author profiles/posts using:

    Additional information, depending on what’s meant, would take rather more work. Especially if you want an easy way for them to edit it.

    Sorry if I was vague before …

    your first link is partially what i’m looking for, and the last part of what you were saying is also part of that …

    is there a way to allow them to easily edit it?

    so, to be more specific hopefully, could I get a page that looks something like this (not necessarily current author, but when anyone looks at the page):

    Author Image
    Author Name
    Link
    Profile Information
    Contact Form

    And have the authors be able to edit only their information, and have it show on a Page? (seems like the job for a plug-in or smth) …

    could i use:

    echo get_the_author_id()

    and insert the id number of the particular author, and do the same for the other items? …
