The number of “users”, people who visit your blog and use it including registered users, are unlimited. The number of contributors, those permitted to contribute content to your blog, is capped at 30. You can pay extra to get more.

About useful tools for working with multiple bloggers, the “User meta” & “User extra” plugins by Squish are quite handy. With them you can limit which categories are visible to post per user, not per role.

We are 10 bloggers and open to fellow bloggers contributors. So far it’s a fantastic experience; what brought us together is the fact that we share common interests (or common tags? ;-) ) and the response from our visitors is encouraging. We created an ezine, with an Editorial, some bloggers asked for their own columns and we opened common spaces to blog about particular themes. It’s quite a challenge to design a Front Page that can provide enough info about the content of the blog without showing any preferences (still we are not very satisfied with the current result); technically we have the problem of not being able to display photos (how to show them small on the Front page and bigger in the single post view) and some of our bloggers have difficulties managing more variables when they are going to post (which categories to select, write the excerpt, etc.). It’s a challenge but luckily the human sinergy that we enjoy at the moment is estimulating.

Actually we couldn’t tell if ours is a collective blog or an ezine powered by WordPress as CMS… how would you define/classify this initiative?

The process is easy. Just add each user through your Users and Authors Panel and set their responsibilities and authorities as described in the two above articles. From there, just monitor how they do and that’s it. How much you allow them to access and how much you monitor is up to you and the time you want to put into it. Start slowly and see how it goes.

The trouble is: we are so darn busy. and I don’t know how to use this new feature. I need a tutorial; if you did one, point me to it. I need to understand what the different assigned roles are and how they function. I am slower at learning this stuff than you, that’s for sure. and it’s so involved. but I want to learn. I’d like lots of other contributors.

You have to enable “Authors” and then set levels for permissions for each of the authors (contributors) you give permissions to. For more information see: WordPress.com Now Offers Users More Users and WordPress Codex – Roles and Capabilities.
