Username replacing title of message

    Whenever I create or edit a post or page, the title is overwritten by my username. How do I stop this from happening? Sometimes the username disappear when I view the post, but just as often it replaces the desired title.

    Have you tried:

    – deactivating all plugins to see if this resolves the problem. If this works, re-activate the plugins one by one until you find the problematic plugin(s).

    – switching to the default theme to rule out any theme-specific problems.

    – resetting the plugins folder by FTP or PhpMyAdmin. Sometimes, an apparently inactive plugin can still cause problems.

    1. I deactivated all the plugins, but this had no effect.

    2. The site uses TwentyTen, which was the default theme at the time when it was set up.

    3. I shall try using FTP to reset the plugins folder when I feel strong enough. Coincidentally, when using forums in bbPress, I “do not have permission” to reply to my own post(!!??). Could the problems be related?

    Twenty Fourteen is the current default theme. Please try that theme.

    What forums? Here or on your site?

    To answer the second question first, the forums are set up on my site (greenfriends.org.uk).

    On the first question, I cannot see a preview of TwentyFourteen or any other theme when selecting Live Preview.

    That shouldn’t matter. Jut try switching to the default 2014 theme.

    Hum. The theme worked, sort of; but the design completely changed and would need a lot of work to restore something usable. I expect you wanted me to test the username problem, but I need to be absolutely sure of returning to the previous layout.

    NB There are no previews of either theme.
