  What is the difference between user registration and subscribers? I want people to be able to subscribe to my blog so they can receive an e-mail every time I publish a new post, but I keep getting e-mails saying I have a new “user registration”. Under the Subscriber’s tab on my dashboard I have an option to “Add a registered WordPress User.” Do I need to do something when people submit their e-mails in order for them to receive updates?

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

  http://theconscientiouseater.com/ is not hosted by wordpress.com and we cannot help you.

  WordPress.COM and WordPress.ORG are completely separate and have different logins, features, run different versions of some themes with the same names, and have separate support forums. Learn about the differences here. http://support.wordpress.com/com-vs-org/

  If you don’t have a username account at WordPress.ORG click http://wordpress.org/support/ and register one on the top right hand corner of the page that opens, so you can post to the Theme support forums there.
