You have to contact your host and ask then to run a check on the extensions and/or check the
permissions for your account.

How can you publish as user?
Do you have to have admin rights to publish w/FP?
 
T

Thomas A. Rowe

You must have Admin/Authoring rights to publish. This is set on the server.

Yes, you create user account on the server for each user, then apply that account to their web site.

Thomas, may I pick your brain for a few more details?
The only access I wish these users to have is to add/edit their web pages
only

I have each user account created on the server but the only way I can get
front page to work is to remove user and ad admin as their assigned group
