I have a wordpress.org username (kirk837). I logged into forum here using that, found my profile looked ok, and tried to post. My post is visible to me while logged in, but is visible to no one else (guest or logged in).

In desperation, I created a new registration (the one I’m posting from now), and posted a copy of my old post — worked just fine.

So — it does say “To participate, register or login with your WordPress.org username:” But that didn’t work for me, even though that username was recognized upon login.

What’s going on?

It sounds like your old account was possibly Bozo’d:

I’ll add the tag “modlook” to this post so that a moderator knows to check your old account for a Bozo flag!
