I would love it if I could just walk away from my new b2 install and let my friends go nuts.

This would require me to setup b2 in such a way that they could self-register (done), be promoted to blogger status (done), have access to their own blog automaticaly... not done...

How do I set it up so new users will have access to their own blog right after they self-register without having to manually create one for them?

I've read through the documentation and somewhere in there it said that this is possible and to check the forums. I've checked the forums. I've searched the forums. I've manually gone through the "how to" forum 4 pages deep now. Nothing. Was someone pulling my leg?

Thank you for your advice.
