readers can edit my site
-
I have a private site with a few readers, but when a reader logs in, they can see and use and edit button (dutch: bewerken-knop). It is possible to add blogs for example. How can I disable this?
The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

Hi there,
It looks like your blog has three total administrators. Yourself and two others. If you would like them to only be able to add articles to your site you will need to change their permissions under Users >> All Users to a lesser role such as Contributor. If you don’t want them to be able to add content at all, you’ll need to remove them and invite them to only view your site, which is available under Settings >> Reading.

My problem is not with the administrators, the problem is that my three readers can add content. They see a button ‘bewerken’ (= edit).
-
Which one of your readers can see an edit link, and on which page? I just checked a couple of your readers and I was not able to see edit (or bewerken) on any of your pages for their user profiles.
-
Rob Goedhart and Henk Goossens saw the buttons. The button is om the homepage and the nieuws page (and i think all the others). They see the same thing when they go to the site marmaai.wordpress.com (which is open for everybody).

The Posts with the buddhist pictures have been added nu Henk Goossens (on a computer where i hadn’t worked or anything), maybe that gives Some information?
-
I again apologize, however I have not been able to replicate this even when viewing your site via one of the readers’ accounts.
If possible, could you please have one of these readers take a screen shot where we can see the edit button and also the menu bar so we can see that they are logged in to their own account? Here is some information which you can send them on how to create a screenshot: http://en.support.wordpress.com/make-a-screenshot/
Once you have the screenshot, if you could upload it to your media library I’ll take a look.

You’re right, when I log in as a reader, i don’t see the button either. But i added the screenshot with the button to my library. I noticed that when I logged in als Henk Goossens, I saw his name in the top right corner. In the screenshot it says Zen Centrum Den Bosch, but on the left it says reader (Henk send me this screenshot). Maybe that’s a clue?
I asked another reader for a screenshot as well, when that one’s in, I will add it as well. -
I just took a look in your media library and the only screenshot I see is one which was taken when you were logged in as yourself. Please let me know if any of your readers are able to provide a screenshot, as I attempted to recreate this effect again today and have been unable to.
