I'm pretty sure you need to get the verified author identity from the session.

Somewhere after

    @include_once('scripts/authuser.php');

you'll want

    ## Require an author name.
    $EnablePostAuthorRequired = 1;
    ## Enforce Author tracking based on the authenticated user.
    if ($action == 'edit') @session_start();
    if (@$_SESSION['authid']) $Author=$_SESSION['authid'];
