For Tuesday School I created a general access account for all our members to use so that all our families can see the website/blog and can post. I required that all posts must be signed with the writers name and that they must be approved by the administrator before they would show up. In this way people can access the blog and contribute without having to set up their own separate account and sign up for a blog. Since I am responsible for all content and use of our blog I retained the right of approval before comments can post but so far it hasn't been too complicated. Maybe the idea will work for you. I hope it helps.

I have exactly the same problem as tuesdayschool's. Is there a way of sharing the blog without asking friends and family to set up an account on WordPress?

You should now be able to directly invite folks to your blog via the Users section of your blog's Dashboard.

So, when I invited myself through another email account I have I had to sign up for a blog. After completing that process I couldn't seem to get to the Tuesday School blog but was limited to the new blog account. I want this process to be as simple as possible since the blog will support a number of families within the school. Once I invite the family and they set up a WordPress account how do they get to the Tuesday school blog?

Also I will be adding teacher contributors as well. Will the process be exactly the same?

I need HELP!

Please and Thank you!
Karen
