  How can I register each person who wants to comment on my blog? And how can just anyone write on my blog? Where are the directions for using this blog? I asked this before but I can’t find the post. Sorry for rewriting it.

  Are you sure you’re in the right place? I note that you don’t have a wp.com blog linked to your name. Usually that means you’re hosted elsewhere. If that is so, than you need to be over at http://wordpress.org as you would be running different software than we do here and our answers would be different.

  (1) There are several aspects to look at. The first is being sure of the roles you all want to have. If you are all Administrators each of you can do everything but that also means that any one of you can boot out both of the other two.

  (2) When you each register with wordpress under a username with an email address take note usernames and email adresses are unique. That means you will not be able to access the blog and post unless you each log-in from that the same email address each of you gave to wordpress when you registered.

  (3) Some themes automatically display authors names and others do not. Some themes have authors pages templates in them others do not. This is in accord with the designer’s choice. There are theme reviews you can use to find this feature http://engtech.wordpress.com/tools/wordpress/wordpress-theme-reviews/

  (4) If you choose a theme that does not automatically supply the author’s name when posting then you can create an Authors category (parent) and a sub-category (child) for the name of each individual author. Then when posts are created they can be assigned by the writer to the correct name.
  Authors
  * Alice
  * Betty
  * Cathy

  (5) If you don’t want to do that the last alternative is to have each Author provide a by-line (type in her username) on the posts he or she makes.
