Can I have multiple Authors

The variety of WordPress Roles
The variety of WordPress Roles

Absolutely!  WordPress comes with the ability not only for multiple Authors but for individual roles.

You can add people and assign them any one of the following roles…

  • Subscriber
  • Contributor
  • Author
  • Editor
  • Administrator
  • And in the case of MultiSite there’s a Super Administrator

Subscriber only allows the person to read and comment on the site.  They cannot create new posts.

A Contributor can write and manage their own posts but cannot publish them.

Authors can can publish and manage their own posts, but only there posts.

Editors can publish and manage posts and pages including the posts of other users.

Admins can do it all. They can also add plugins, change themes.

There’s a long article in the WordPress Codex HERE or I’ve written a blog post about it HERE.

Who to host with?

It's the #1 question I'm asked - where to find inexpensive shared hosting. Here's who I recommend.
Data Servers are a HUGE drain on the power grid. Here's a host that sources 300% of it's power from Wind and Solar! On top of that, their service ROCKS!
Check out GreenGeeks

Need more power?

WPEngine has it!
