help with blog in my website

  • Unknown's avatar

    Is there a way in which I can have something like a contact form in my website, in which people write, and automatically upload to my blog?

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

  • You can use the theme P2 it lets you post directly from the homepage.

    To place a contact form on it see here https://en.support.wordpress.com/contact-form/

    Know that a blog is not a forum noticeboard nor is it a wiki. On blogs one must have a wordpress.com username account and be an official contributor of the blog in order to publish on the blog.

    If you’d like to invite others to publish posts or help approve comments on your blog, you can invite them to be an Editor or Author on your blog. See here and note the Contributors cannot post images > http://en.support.wordpress.com/adding-users/

    Your visitors can submit URLs to images in comments and then you can moderate your comments approve them or not just as you do any comment. http://en.support.wordpress.com/comments/embeds/

    You can have either a public or a private WordPress.COM hosted blog and there is no limitation on the total number of contributors to any blog. If you’d like to invite others to publish posts or help approve comments on your blog, you can invite them to be a Contributor, Editor, or Author. If you want users to receive updates each time you publish new content you can invite them to be a follower/viewer.

    To change blog visibility to Private go to > Settings > Reading scroll to Blog Visibility and choose option 3. See the guide here http://en.support.wordpress.com/settings/privacy-settings

    See here please:
    http://en.support.wordpress.com/adding-users/ and here http://en.support.wordpress.com/user-roles/

    The person will have to register a username account which requires an email address only, but does not need to register a blog. That requirement is because the software has to be able to differentiate between hackers and official users and allow access only to those with username accounts and official roles on the blog.

    They will need to click the “Accept Invitation” button in the invitation email. If they are logged into their WordPress.com account, they will be taken directly to your blog. If not, they will be taken to the log-in screen, where they can either log in or create a new user account.

    Note that users who create a new WordPress.com account at that point will still need to return to the invitation email and click the “Accept Invitation” button after doing so.

    Lastly, there is a built-in spammer prevention so send out only 10 invitations at one point in time and then wait and manage those before sending out 10 more.
