How do I change who can contribute to my site?
Administrators and creators can change who may contribute to the site.

FAQ
Q. Can I make my site private? I don't want anyone else to be able to see my site.A. Yes. After you have created a site go into the site "Settings" . Look under the "Permissions" tab on the settings page. Only users that are already members of the site will be able to enter the site once it is set to private status. In order for a new member to join, the site would need to be changed back to public status (at least temporarily).
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.
