  I have set my blog to private and have invited people to view it. They are having trouble setting up an account and then accessing my blog afterwards. Also when I post something new, they are not notified and are having trouble getting in. I’m considering changing it to public without search engine access, but I still want to place a password on it. Can’t find how to do that. Is there a way?

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

  Hi there. You can’t password protect an entire blog. The best you’ll be able to do is password protect individual posts and pages. See here for more information: http://en.support.wordpress.com/posts/post-visibility/#password-protect-a-post

  Thank you….I have finally found that information. My blog is simple with just one page, so I found that once you’re in, all the posts come up because they are all on one page. Thank you!
