  Howdy!

  I have been running around in circles trying to activate a seemingly inexistent setting that would send an email to all the viewers of my blog once I post a new content.

  My blog is a private blog, and as such, people need to receive an invite and create a wordpress account before getting access to the blog.

  All these people keep telling me that they don’t receive any update when I post a new article and they get rather frustrated as they feel they are missing out :-(

  I understand that if my blog was public then any follower would receive an update by email. But because my blog is private somehow this does not happen.

  There must be a way around it right??

  Thanks for your help.
  Marie

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

  They would need to follow your blog. Just because they can read your private site does not automatically mean they are following you so they’d get email updates.
