Hi

I have a large number of users in my wordpress installation (> 17000). 

When role scoper is activated the author override field in the edit page/post screen contains a lot of users. Obviously, this makes the form unusable. When it is de-activated, it just shows the admin user, so role scoper is clearly doing something to this list.

My question is can this be changed somehow to not show all the users, maybe just those with edit ability?

In roles > options I have seen a checkbox for 'Filter users dropdown' which I have tried turning on and off however, it doesn't seem to have any effect.

Any ideas?

Thanks

I just finished reviewing this, and can't confirm any filtering of the Author dropdown when that RS option is disabled.

All pertinent filtering is applied by code in role-scoper/hardway/hardway-users_rs.php, which is included (via require_once) statement by hardway-admin_rs.php:

if ( in_array( $GLOBALS['pagenow'], array( 'post.php', 'post-new.php' ) ) ) {
	if ( scoper_get_option( 'filter_users_dropdown') )
		require_once( 'hardway-users_rs.php' );
}

Are you sure the option is disabled, and you're not getting browser-cached html for the edit form?
