Hey folks. I created an account called "General" so that I could have a common forum for all users, and a blog that everyone could post to. Well, everyone can post to the forum, but only me as Admin and the user "General" can post to the blog. Is there a way I can open that blog to everyone for posting?

Need a small shift in thinking.

Right now your thinking you want a profile that all members can add to the blog. Instead approach it from the perspective of "I want a single location where all blog posts can be seen" and what you're after becomes real easy.

This doc has some useful info related to levels:

"concepts the admin user needs to know"
https://www.jamroom.net/the-jamroom-network/documentation/getting-started/2167/concepts-the-admin-user-needs-to-know

So instead of trying to put 'everybodies blog on one profile' create 'a location that shows everybodies blogs'

Example:
https://www.jamroom.net/blog

It can be done easily at site level using either {jrCore_list module="jrBlog"} or with Site builder

"{jrCore_list}"

"What is Site Builder?"
