In reply to: [email protected]I’m not making myself clear. There are three users in the wp_users table. The first (ID 1) has a user_login of “admin”, my wife’s name as the user_nickname, and my wife’s email as the user_email.
Then there are two more records, which I don’t know where they came from. One (ID 2) has my wife’s name as the user_login, my wife’s name as the user_nickname, and [email protected] as the user_email. The other extra record (ID 3) has nothing as the user_login, nothing as the user_nickname, and [email protected] as the user_email.
User ID 1 has zero posts and a user_level of 10. The other two users have a user_level of 1. User ID 2 has 46 posts, I think mostly from the Blogger import, but my wife has also added new posts, and as the other two users have zero posts, I’m assuming that this is the user record that my wife is actually logging in as when she makes new posts. The user_pass for ID 2 and ID 3 are the same.
I’ve changed the user_email field for user ID 2 to my wife’s email (I haven’t yet changed ID 3), and I think this will solve the problem, but I still don’t understand what exactly is going on. I think that importing the Blogger content created ID 2, but I don’t know where ID 3 came from, and I don’t know if I need to keep all three of these records, or if only one is sufficient, and if one is sufficient, which one I should keep and how I should edit that one record so that everything behaves properly for my wife.
Any assistance would be appreciated.
Thanks,

In reply to: [email protected]Well, my hosting service does provide phpmyadmin access to the database files, and searching for “user” results in 5 results within wp_options, 1 in wp_posts and 2 in wp_users. The two wp_users records are thost that I mentioned in the original post. The one in wp_posts is from one of the posts that was imported from Blogger. The 5 in wp-options are all unreleated, having the word “user” appear in the option_description field.
Should I just delete the two extra users in the wp_users table? How did those two other users get created? Should I change the email address manually for those two records using phpmyadmin?
Any other suggestions?
Thanks,
Chuck
