    Hi,

    I just started working with WordPress and I was told that I can install a plugin that I can make my website a content management system.

    I need people to be able to come to my site, register, then they get their own page and there’s a form on their page each time they go to their page that they can put info into and it shows up on their page and their page only. The person that registers for their own page can only view that information and I need them to be able to sign up through a registration form that they have to activate by email as well.

    I also need to have pages where an administrator (me) or whoever I make as an admin can see all the info on all pages even the users with one page through the registration form as well.

    Is this possible?

    “Houston, we’ve got a problem!”

    Technically WP is a CMS. It’s a semantics thing 😉

    Do you want them to have their own pages, or their own sites? Because Multisite can do it.

    I want them to have their own pages. I would like to eventually have a site running from wordpress that nobody would know it had anything to do with my wordpress stuff and could point the URL at whatever directory I want their website in or like you said above “Do you want them to have their own pages, or their own sites?” I would like to have that in my arsenal as well sometime in the near future but for now I just need to have registered users have their own page and once they are registered it gives them their own page, the page would have a form on that page and can add information on that form, the info from the form shows up on their page only and every time they go to the page they can add new info from the form which will show up on their page and all the forms that person ever filled out from their page would be visible on that registered users page. What is Multisite?

    Allowing users to edit only their pages is tricksy. I would say make CPTs for each user, and then use a plugin like Members to allow only that user to edit that CPT.

    Multisite let’s them have their own site, and if you make them a pn Editor and not a pn Admin, they can only post, and not edit settings.
