  When I am writing a new blog post, I have the option to change who is the blog being posted by. Most of the times, I am the default person but every so often, one of my subscribers is listed. Is there any way to remove all of my subscribers from this list and only have myself and the admin?

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

  Hi,

  Have you checked what their user roles are? You may need to change their user roles so that they do not have any editing privileges on your site.

  The following documentation explains how to do that: https://en.support.wordpress.com/user-roles/#changing-user-roles

  Hope this helps

  They are listed as subscribers under my team. Should they be under followers?

  Yes, I recommend changing their role to Follower if you don’t want them to be able to write and edit posts.

  Let me know if this is what you had in mind

  I don’t see Followers as an option.

  Try changing them to Contributors. At least, they will only be able to create and edit their own posts.
