    I administer a wordpress site for a community garden, and I’d like to allow several people to post blog posts by email. The instructions say that the email must come from the email address associated with the WordPress account. Is there a workaround that will allow me to give the email address to a small group of people (obviously with different email addresses) so they can post?

    The page I need help with: [log in to see the link]

  • Hi Linda.

    Anybody can Post by Email to your blogsite with Jetpack. You can find the secret email address under Settings > Writing > Post by email. You can always regenerate this email address if it gets out of control.

    You can find more info about it on Jetpack’s documentation.

    I use the following shortcodes which must be at the top of the email:

    [title Great gardening tips]
[status draft]
[category category_tags_here]
[tags garden_tags_here]
[publicize off]
Gardening is a lifestyle...

    I wish there was some settings that default set status to draft but I have not found it. The same goes for Publicize.
