  I’d like to add multiple users to just one blog post, without letting them have editing rights to other blog posts. Is this possible?

  Background – we’re hosting a Hackathon and need a webpage to host the outputs, one to which all participants can upload their work individually.

  Thanks for your help.

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  That’s not possible unless you make them official users of the blog.

  You can have them email their content to you. Then you can create the posts. The only way to provide a byline will be to type it into the first sentence in the body of the post.

  I do think you need a wiki for this, not a blog.

  I agree with raincoaster and there are free wikis.
