Modify the components/com_registration/registration.php around the 150th line. Change this

I have just tried your solution but joomla still shows error: 'You are not authorised to view this resource.' when try post new articles. 

In this case I suggest to use Ja Submit:
http://extensions.joomla.org/component/ ... Itemid,35/

Yah! I have used it but its not set default group as author  it just helps me approve articles only

The above mentioned code should work, many users gave me feedback. Are you logged in when trying to send articles?

yes, user must login to post new article

JA Submit allows you to set the level of user that can submit articles so you could make your registered users able to submit articles. It also allows you to define what will be automatically published. It does not allow you to automatically promte to the front page however. Thjs thread will show you how to accomplish that

The code provided will set your new users to author not your current users. See http://forum.joomla.org/index.php/topic,2610.0.html

Ah, its working now!  My issues are mod/com, I have installed some registration mod/com and it didnt work until I removed them

Thank you! Thank you for all

This is a 1.0.x series solution and will not work in the 1.5.x as written.
