 * The Author Panel no longer works! Please fix this plugin and update it for the
   latest version of WordPress.

 * Hi, My autor panel stopped working. I found the submit button had disapeared.
   
   I found that when I turned off the tags the button showed again. I am now running
   it without the tags. I must check these things whenever I update anything so 
   I dont get caught again. In your article site settings try switching off the 
   tags that waht did it for me.

 * Hi everyone,
 * For others who encounter this thread, I found out why the Author Panel would 
   no longer in newer versions of WordPress. Apparently the TinyMCE API was changed
   in WordPress 3.3.
 * To make the Author Panel work in WordPress 3.3 and above, you need to comment
   out `wp_tiny_mce( false, array( 'height' => '370' ) );` on line 169 in author-
   panel.php.
 * I hope this helps others who encounter the same issue.
