  I looked at http://www.wpbeginner.com/beginners-guide/how-to-allow-user-registration-on-your-wordpress-site/#comment-374577.
  On my site, when I go settings-general, there is no membership heading

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

  Hi @robbowler,

  This tutorial would only work for a self hosted WordPress.org site, not for a WordPress.com site. You can add users to your site at WordPress.com, but it wouldn’t be like a membership. It would be to allow other people to contribute to your blog in various ways. To learn more about it, please check out these links:

  And if you’re a bit unsure of the differences between WordPress.com and WordPress.org, learn more about that at:
