If you are to stay with Wordpress, you should look at BuddyPress which is a plugin that adds a Ning.com like social network to your site. However, be warned, what you are doing is hard and a lot of work to do it well. Wanda — your requirements often show me that you may need to be looking at Drupal rather than WordPress as a solution.

I am trying to develop a publishing platform for the Marin Professionals community where members can be trained on WEB 2.0 and social network while using the association as means of networking into their next job experience. I have registered the domain above initially with Godaddy, then 1and1 where I had the website hosted for a while. recently I went back to the Godaddy(deluxe package) hosting services because I understand they are able to provide inexpensive and easy to utilize hosting services. That way, the Marin Professionals' members will be able to register into the marinprofessionals.com website and then volunteer their services while blogging during their job search and networking for leads and interviews in this safe environment. I am using WordPress because I was told it is the easiest way to get a template and customize it. I looked at the WordPress showcase and found a website I really would like to utilize as a sample: ït is called "umwblogs.org" which is the publishing platform for the Mary Washington community. Can you help me selecting a way to find a WrodPress template that allows for membership publishing?
