  I have created a blog that I want only parents of my students to access. I would like to set up my blog in a way that when a parent goes to the site, they cant see anything until they put in a password. I figured out how to make a post private by password, but I dont want to have to do that for each individual picture. How can I do this?

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

  Hi, there.

  You can make your blog private:

  Check out this this page to learn how to invite people to view your private blog:

  Specifically, the section “Invite People to View Your Private Blog.”

  Hope this helps.

  Cheers,

  You’re welcome! Reading it again, I hope my reply didn’t sound snarky. I got a little careless with the ctrl-C/ctrl-V.
