Hi:

I did a search of the forums and found no reference to this. I would like newly registered users to default to "Author" instead of "Registered", and I can't seem to figure out how to do this...

Any help would be most appreciated.

there's another way, that u assign what "author" can do to "registered" members,

check this file
/classes/gacl.class.php

add the following lines around the 170th line ...

array( 'action', 'add', 'users', 'registered', 'content', 'own' ),
array( 'action', 'edit', 'users', 'registered', 'content', 'own' ),
array( 'action', 'publish', 'users', 'registered', 'content', 'all' ),

it would give the registered member the rights to upload and publish items

hope it helps :)
