Limiting priveleges to users

Hi all,

Over the past couple of weeks, I’ve been thinking about creating a couple of communities; so you can imagine the pleasure of coming to learn about BuddyPress.

I have one question, though, which I’ve not been able to find anywhere else…

Is it the case that anyone can register on the community and create a blog just like that? Can the community admin restrict who has the privilege to do that (as well as other things)? Also, is it possible to make membership by invitation only?

Thanks in advance.

I have one question

Here are the three answers to your one question!

Is it the case that anyone can register on the community and create a blog

You can control blog registration in WPMU’s backend. Log into the admin panel as site administrator and visit “Site Admin > Options > Allow new registrations”. There are a few settings which give you some basic control.

Can the community admin restrict who has the privilege to do that

If the community admin is the overall site admin, then see the first answer.

is it possible to make membership by invitation only?
