  Hi

  Is it possible to have the comment fields password protected. It’s okay to read the comments on a blog post but if you want to comment on a blog post, you need to enter a username and password. Is that possible?

  I got to this conversation because I would like to require a username and password from anyone to view any of my content. I could not figure out how to do this. My blog is: http://www.creativewow1.wordpress.com

  Is this possible on WordPress.com? If so, how?

  Not sure if this is exactly what you’re looking for, but you can restrict commenting to only logged-in wordpress users: http://en.support.wordpress.com/who-can-comment/
