Private blog?

[dontodd]

Hello,

What's the best way to have a private blog where people with a username and password can only read the blog, not have any author/editor permissions? The "Private mode" plugin just redirects to the admin login page, so the user needs an account. Is it possible to have a read-only role for users?

Alternatively, would my best bet be just to lock the whole Bludit directory with .htaccess and .htpasswd?

Thanks!

At the moment this is the only possibility.
