Sorry, I'll have to ask you now to switch back once again to your original role—being the site administrator. After all, once an Author has submitted an article you (or another user with publishing permissions) should review and approve the new content to get it to display on the site. Let's see how this works:
1. Log in to the backend of your site as Administrator. Navigate to Tools | Read Messages (or click on the little envelope icon next to the Preview button in the backend Control Panel). You'll see this message:
A new Article has been submitted by [ jvgogh ] titled [ SRUP Welcomes New Members ] from Section [ News ] and Category [ General News ].

Receiving submission reminders
The Private Messaging icon isn't really conspicuous—you're bound to overlook messages alarming you about new submissions. Do you want to get an e-mail notification every time new content is submitted? Navigate to Tools | Read Messages and click on the Settings button...
