Hello,
I just begin to use the serendipity.
I don't know
1- How to add photos to Photo Gallery
2- What to do to allow user to regestrate on-line.
Then to enter their login an password into the form and enter into private pages.
By the way how to make some page private?
3. How to delete or to chage a menu item?
4. How to delete or to change a regular page on my site?
5. How to make several blogs on one website
Thanks in advance

By the way, a great way to find solutions for almost all of these questions would be to search this forum. :)

What do you mean by "photo gallery"? The internal media database, a collection of photos displayed on some page of your blog or is it an external software of that name?

Install the plugin "User Self-Registration". You can set read/write permissions for categories individually in the categories section of the admin backend. Assign self-registered users to those categories to enable them to read those entries.

If by page you mean static pages – I think those can only be password-protected, they're not covered by the s9y permission system (yet).

Depends on the template you're using ..?

If by "regular page" you mean existing HTML pages, that's not possible. If you want to add static pages, i.e. non-entries, to your blog, you need to install the plugin "Static pages" first.
