  Hi,

  I wonder, is it possible to make people who are not “members” of WordPress able to read your “private” blog by logging in with their emailadress and a password or something? Or do they all have to be users to be invited to read a private blog?

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

  No, they all have to be registered users to read the blog, otherwise WP can’t ensure your privacy.

  Hi. No, to sign in and be able to view your blog:
  1- they have to create a WordPress.com account (but not necessarily a blog), unless they have one already
  2- you have to add their username to Settings > Privacy
