If in the dashboard I go to Users > All Users, from the list of users I can locate the user with username/nickname 100685 (user ID 405), which shows that they have published one post (see the screenshot).
If I click the link to that one post, it takes me to the list of posts authored by that user, a single post with ID = 31716.
But when I edit that post it says the author is "glee". Why's that? That's not the author I was expecting.
I suspect that may be related to the problem of the post not showing up in the author archive on the front end.
