user to blogger?
-
Hi, I’ve never done anything like this before but i was invited to help run a blog by the person whose just set one up. Problem is when I signed up i took the option to just be a user, not a blogger, as i thought maybe being a blogger would mean that i had to set up an entirely new site. Now i seem to be able to write articles as drafts, but have no way of actually publishing them. how can i now change my profile to allow me to publish stuff myself?
ps sorry if this is a stupid question, or if i am missing something obvious!

You need to have the role of Author or above to publish. You’re probably listed as a Contributor currently. Those can write and submit but not publish.
Get with the blog admin and see if they’ll raise your role.
For reference, here’s a FAQ for the different levels.
Hope this helps,

Ah I see so it wasn’t me choosing the wrong option, rather it was the blog admin offering me a role that i couldn’t publish from in the first place. no worries she can publish it herself when she next logs in. Thanks very much for your advice and for the whole wordpress thing!
