  I have chosen to keep my blog private by allowing only users that I choose. However, I’ve just discovered that there is a new user who managed to access my blog even though I did not send any invitation to his/her listed email account. How did this happen? And what can I do to prevent this from happening again?

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

  Can you clarify how you came to find that someone accessed your blog?

  That person is listed as a user on my blog and with the role of a contributor. The listed email of the person is not on my list of invites.

  Perhaps the contributor has more than 1 email address.

  If there is more than one administrator, these things can happen.
