 * So here is my pet peeve with all blogging platfroms that I’ve tried and used.
   I have not been able to find a platform that will allow me to have users register
   on my site, and then restrict access to individual posts based on who the user
   is.
 * For example let’s say I have WordPress installed and 20 people that have registered.
   I may have one post where I only want Sally, John, Rich, and Holly to see. Then
   another post where only Sally and Holly can see.
 * I looked through the forum as best I could, and the plugins, but could not find
   such a hack or plugin. Does anyone know of a plugin or way I may be able to do
   this whether it be with WP or any other blogging platform?

 * Uh, [http://codex.wordpress.org/Plugins/Restriction](http://codex.wordpress.org/Plugins/Restriction)?
 * And if none of those work, a custom made plugin could very easily do what you’re
   looking for. WordPress is quite customizable. 😉
