How to make a register and log in section
-
How can I let visitors register and log in instead of me having to send them a link?
The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

If you are asking about this blog: http://casemodstop.wordpress.com/ , then it is public and visitors don’t have to register or log in to read it.
Using posts with categories and tags will enable potential readers to find your blog. If you have friends, business associates, family, etc. who you want to know about your site, then sending a link to each is really the only way to let them know.
Or, are you asking how to make that blog private so readers would have to register with WordPress and sign in to read it?

No baisicly take a look at a website which I worked at last: azcs.co.uk
I want to make a log in so they can write ect. -
Hmm. The closest wp.com comes to something similar to that is to add users. They can have different roles:

As for having an actual form, you’d have to link to an external forum. wp.com is exclusively a blogging platform.

With adding users, do note that the users would have to sign up for a wordpress.COM account (don’t have to get a blog, just an account) in order for them to be allowed to post on your blog.

So if I wanted to do something like that but make them register on my site would it be possible?
Take a look at AZCS.CO.UK that’s what I mean. Its on wordpress.com
Also I have just made a .com account so can I do it from there?

http://azcs.co.uk is not a wordpress.com blog. It is apparently using wordpress.ORG software.
wordpress.COM is not the same as
wordpress.ORGhere is the information from wp.COM:
https://en.forums.wordpress.com/topic/please-read-me-first-before-posting?replies=1You can link to an external forum, but you can NOT embed a forum with wp.COM.

I’m confused…can you tell me exactly what I would need to do to get what is on azcs.co.uk?

@azamans
Please read the entry Tess linked to above. This technical support forum is only for wordpress.COM bloggers. As our software is different from your you must post to the correct forum to get the correct answers for your software. That forum is here http://wordpress.ORG/support/ -
Did your read my link about the difference between wp.COM and wp.ORG.
They are two different animals.
There are many things we at wp.COM can not do.
wp.ORG is pretty much open to what you want, restricted by your paid host’s TOS and your own skill.
again:
https://en.forums.wordpress.com/topic/please-read-me-first-before-posting?replies=1If what you want is not an embedded forum, then you can go and start a forum somewhere and link to it. It may even be possible to link to your external forum in a navigation tab.
