> I, as an "Author", can Edit/Delete/Classify-as-Spam comments written by
other Authors, including anonymous ones, but not mine.[[BR]]
> In edit-comment.php, [ Edit | ... ] links are present except on my
comments.[[BR]]
> I can ''actually edit'' comments by others using edit-comment.php.[[BR]]
> Even edit_comment_link() in my theme does the opposite thing.[[BR]]
> There must be some flipped logic introduced in 2.3, or screwed up on db
upgrade...?
Unable to duplicate. Steps attempted on a blog upgraded from 2.2.1 to 2.3.
* Ran upgrade.php.
* Created new author.
* unable to edit other users comments both through the dashboard, through
options/manage comments (edit-comment.php), and through the
edit_comment_link() in the theme.
Some things to try...
* Remove your wp-admin directory from your wordpress installation. (rm
-rf wp-admin from your blogs home directory.)
* Extract a fresh wordpress copy to a new sub directory.
* Move the wp-admin from that directory to the your blogs home directory.
* See if the problem still exists.
* If problem still occurs try doing the same procedure with wp-includes.
