    Why do guest logins get access to the dashboard??? Doesn't make sense. Anyone know how to limit guest login accessibility? Or a plugin that does it?

    Thanks!!

    You might have enabled or opened Registration to your blog - otherwise, regular guests/visitors should not be able to access your dashboard at all. Check out your Settings > General and beside Membership - make sure there it is not checked.

    Thanks Mercime,

    I wasn't too clear. Sorry. I want guests to be able to register. But once they do, I only want them to be able to adjust their own profile, not anything to do with the site. When I click that anyone can register, I can't set the priveledges...

    Weird no?

    Or is there maybe a plugin that let's people choose an avatar or something for when they log in?

    avatar:
    http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/add-local-avatar/ - user has choice between avatar or gravatar
    http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/user-photo/ - haven't used this but heard good things about it.
