Here is the link to its homepage

Just wasn’t sure about how it works based on what it said on the homepage.

Anybody else familiar with this plugin?

Does the TDOMF plugin not work all the features you need for your site? I got it up and running and it is working great for mine.

PS: If anyone else had encountered problems similar to mine, make sure you set their role to “subscriber”, not “Contributor”.

I’ve found a solution and haven’t seemed to encounter any complications with it yet.

All I did was renamed the folder of the theme I wanted to use to “default”. After I did this it hasn’t changed back.

Although you’ll probably have to change this every time you want to select a new theme.

I’m also having this exact problem with my website. Has anyone “found a cure” for this problem yet?

Anybody use this plugin?

I’ve tried contacting the creator, but couldn’t figure out where to go on his blog.

Now it won’t even let me create pages under my profile as the administrator, I’m so confused

I still don’t understand who the “default author” is suppose to be, it wont let me pick my own admin username as the author.

Is it only referring to the TDOMF posts?

Should I just create a new user for the “default role”?

I’d appreciate any advice relating to this matter.

Thanks a lot, that did the trick!

Forgive me for asking, probaably a stupid question, but what is a “ping”? It says I successfully pinged Google. Does it mean the file was automatically sent to Google?

Still getting the errors, are we supposed to have the sitemap files pre-made? If so, then with what program should they be created with?

I set the New User Default Role to Contributor, but I still get the publishing error.

Should I change this? Because I still want to create, edit posts as the administrator.

Still receiving the same errors, problem isn’t fixed yet.

Kathryn,
If you mean by “where do I upload them to?”, how to actually submit them to Google, here is what I did:

1. Go to Google Webmaster Central ( https://www.google.com/webmasters/ )
2. First Make sure your site is verified by Google
3. Click on “Webmaster Tools”
4. Click on Manage: www.(yoursite).com
5. There should be 4 tabs: Diagnostic, Statistics, Links, Sitemap (Click on this tab)
6. Then there should be an “add a sitemap” link
7. Then choose “Add General Web Sitemap” from the drop-down menu
8. Then type in the URL of the sitemap (www.(yoursite).com/sitemap.xml or whatever) and click “Add Web Sitemap”

Hope this Helps

Everything’s working fine,
Thanks for the help everyone

I don’t think it will let me edit the theme footer because below the codebox it says:

“If this file were writable you could edit it.”

I encountered this problem before when trying to change the code.
