Adding a blog using composer

Permalink
When someone adds a blog to my site, it doesn't seem to record "posted by" correctly. It leaves it blank. When someone logs in and navigates to the blog it says posted by them. eg if John logs in navigates to the blog it says posted by John (even if he didn't post it). When he logs out it goes blank again.

Just using composer attached to a page type. I installed a fresh copy of concrete in another location, and noticed it does this with the "Simple site with a blog" set up ie using the Greek Yogurt theme. On the face of it, it seems as though this is a bug. Altough may simple be a config thing?

Can anyone shed any light?

Cheers

Sounds like the wrong code snippet is being used to display the author. Are you using a theme you've created yourself, or something from the Marketplace?

Thx for the reply. It appeared to happen on a vanilla install just using "sample content with blog", however, i've just done a vanilla install on another machine and it appears to be working fine. Problem is the snippet of code seems to be buried in the core. When you configure composer to use a specific page type it adds the "posted by" line to the end of the content which is added.

In any case, I'll try another install on my remote server and see if I can get it to work. Many thanks.

Scrap my last answer. I didn't log out after I did the install. After logging out, and viewing the post. It says "posted by" without the name.

Note, this is a vanilla install, so this must be a bug in the core of the app. I would like to know how to resolve it though. If anyone can shed any light on where the snippet of code which adds this text might reside, please do.

Many thanks for any attention anyone can give this.

Very strange.
First sign of weirdness I always clear the cache in Concrete5. After that I'm not sure on this one. I'd think the default theme and Greek Yogurt would both be coded correctly.

I'm facing something similar. While adding a new post, everything adds fine except the post content. I've double checked to make it sure that I didn't do any mistake. So re-edit that post several times and put content, but blank. Also I'm trying to add more posts, all of them are resulting same.
I'm using Concrete 5.6.2.1

BTW I've tried to clear cache but no luck.
