  How do I set up a password needed to access my blog? So that if people click the link, they are prompted for a password before reading any posts.

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

  I’m sorry, you can’t do this.

  You can make your blog private though, and then you can add up to 35 usernames – and only those usernames can view the blog. You could also password protect each post, but I’m sure you wouldn’t want to do that.

  You can’t password-protect your entire blog, you can make it Private or Password-protect each individual post:
