How to Create a Private Members-Only WordPress Blog & Enroll 1000’s of Users
November 12th, 2012 by admin
In this video I demonstrate how to close a WordPress blog to the public and make it available only to members who have a username and password created for them by the blog administrator. The site I demonstrate has 49500 members that I created and bulk uploaded in about an hour. I show the plugin I used for the bulk upload of users. I’ll create a follow-up video in a week or so demonstrating how I used Excel to create those users from a file with nothing but first and last names. If you have need for a private blog/website to share with a few people or tens of thousands of people, this should help get you started.

Impressive tutorial, thank you. How did you manage to distribute the usernames and passwords? to each user? By some sort of individualised mail? I have to reach 4000 collegues.
