Site Permissions Settings
How do I change who can contribute to my site?
Administrators and creators can change who may contribute to the site. Since changing the permissions setting can drastically alter the amount and quality of contributions made to your site, we recommend doing so only in cases where locking pages, banning users, or adding more moderators have failed either to curtail or generate a desired level and quality of contributions. To change the site permissions setting:

FAQ
Q. Can I make my site private? I don't want anyone else to be able to see my site.A. As of June 20, 2007 - yes. You can select this option during the site creation process, or by going into your site "Settings" if you have an existing site. Look under "Permissions" on the settings page.
Q. Why can other people edit my website?
A. Wetpaint sites are openly editable by design! This feature allows people to collaborate as they create content for the site, and brings like-minded people together who share a common passion.
Q. Okay, that’s great, but I still don’t want others to edit my website. How do I change this?
A. As the creator of your site, you have two options to control who has permission to directly edit pages:
- Manually “lock” individual site pages. Learn how.
- Set your global permissions scheme to “invite-only” mode so that you can control who has access to edit pages.
Note: RSS feeds are disabled when a site is set to private status.

For a known limited group - all the franchisees in our business - I want to just be able to add them from the start, with known identities, known emails, even initally set passwords.
Is that possible ? will it be possible ?

Is it possible to have a site be publicly viewable, but only allow editing, profile creation, etc. by those you invite? We don't mind if others see and read our site, but we only want our core group to be able to add to and change it.

Having the possibility for closed groups / private pages would be awesome. Then I could definitely see myself using wetpaint as a collaboration tool.
