I've got a strange thing happening.
I have set up the Studio Press Blog using the Church Theme and have the Dynamic Content plug-in installed.
WORKS GREAT!
BUT… when I add people who will be administrators to the site with FULL ADMIN rights with a new UN & PW the Dynamic Content Gallery does not work for THEM.
It give the black screen in the FC area and the loading symbol – but it just gets frozen there and does not advance.
What is is about this plug in and multiple Administrators?
Very odd – everything else seems to work – as far as a typical blog post for multiple administrators – except populating the Dynamic Content area.
Any ideas on this?
I did a search in the forums and did not see any info on this.
PLUG INs – I went back and turned off ALL of my plug in except Dynamic Content and I still can not get it to work with multiple administrators.
Problem is 3 of us need administrator rights to have full access to all features of
Wordpress.
Thanks in advance

OfflinePaul,
Not sure I fully understand… Are you saying that the new admins can't see the DCG on the front end (ie when viewing the site), or they can't see the backend Settings page?
What's your URL?

Ok… let me see if I can explain the problem better.
I set up a website for 2 girls who are doing a fashion blog.
I am the main administrator and am setting up the site, designing it, adding plugins that they will need etc. etc.
But they are going to be the ones taking over the site in the future after I teach them how to change the header, background, add posts, add new plugins. So they must also have full WordPress Administration control.
So naturally I set up 3 users and gave everyone admin rights. Last night I was "teaching" one of the girls how to use the WordPress Studio Press Church theme to make a page, make a post, add photos in the body copy etc etc. Everything worked fine for her. But once I taught her how to add a photo into the Dynamic Content area it would not work. It would work using MY username and password as the first Admin set up, but using HER username and password to try to populate the Dynamic Content area it would show a black loading screen, never scrolling to the next photo that I had successfully added previously. After trial and error we finally figured out it's not working with multiple administrators usernames and passwords. Only the first administrator set up would actually make the dynamic content photo slider function properly.
We even deleted both the later administrators so there was only one log in username and password (mine) and she was finally able to add a photo to the dynamic content and it worked like it should.
It's like it only will accept a senario where only the first "administrator" can add photos to the dynamic content feature. All the other "administrators" get the black loading screen – NEVER loading her photo nor advancing to the next "working photo" in the line up.
http://www.kandlcloset.com/website is where we are building the site and where I am teaching them how to blog, use wordpress, and eventually take the site over having full admin rights changing the pages, posts as well as widget control and major changes to the look and feel of the site.
Am I making sense? It is baffling why this one plug in only likes ONE administrator, but that is what seems to be happening.

Oh… I reread your question… everything looks correct for them using their Admin username and password in the Wordpress backend administration area – it's only when they publish the page – go to inspect the home page – we see the black loading screen for the photo they wish to appear in the Dynamic Content photo slider.

Ughhh – I finally figured out what I was doing wrong.
ROOKIE MISTAKE
When I was teaching her how to use the Dynamic Content Gallery I was not paying attention to when she would grab the FILE URL link to the IMAGE – the absolute path of the upload that is pasted in the sidebar in the Dynamic Content Gallery Metabox. She must have copied the POST URL – thus it was not populating the FCG with an image.
I just was not snapping or looking closely at the link… AND the sun was in my eyes.
