    Hi

    i jsut want to know is it possible that you gave access to someone to post articles in appropriate categories on a site made on wp.(Obviously you are the owner of site)

    Without Giving them the admin username and pwd

    How can we grant access to 1 or more people to post on our blog regularly

    is there any script or method exist

    create the user and assign them as an author, they will be able to post to any category
    or assign them as a contributor and they can do the same as an author but posts made must be authorised by an admin

    there r many plugins which can hide the dashboard for the users who login and they will only be able to post and nothing else they can do inside ur wp page. im looking for something where users can directly signin from the website to post, instead of signin from WP admin

    But I think you will not be able to go to other settings/page in the Admin Dashboard if you are not the Admin because your permission has been restricted to certain areas only.

    But if you don't want them to signin from Admin Dashboard and want them to update the blog from external party, probably you can recommend them to use desktop blogging client. I'm using BlogDesk btw. Simple interface but have all the functionalities that bloggers want.
