    This is probably obvious, but how do I add users to my wordpress blog so that they can contribute articles. In the dashboard I went to users and created a new user, but where does this new user login so he can make posts?

    -my wordpress blog is self hosted, if this makes any difference.

    They login at the same place you do.

    do they login at mysite.com/wp-admin ? For some reason this is not working. I created a new user and set them to be a contributor to the blog. I then tried to login with there info and I was unable to login....

    I've manually made people users and they were able to login...I even tested with a contributor and there was no issue.
    Try again.
