  I have invited others to be Authors to the blog I created. They register and it supposedly works, but when they want to get into the blog it says that the blog is ‘private’ and don’t have access to it. Others have gotten in. What could the problem be? I need to resolve this ASAP. Thanks.

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  This blog is private http://goodwillesmn.wordpress.com/

  They will need to click the “Accept Invitation” button in the invitation email. If they are logged into their WordPress.com account, they will be taken directly to your blog. If not, they will be taken to the log-in screen, where they can either log in or create a new user account.

  Note that users who create a new WordPress.com account at that point will still need to return to the invitation email and click the “Accept Invitation” button after doing so.

  Hi!

  If the users aren’t logged in yet, they will be asked to provide their login credentials before gaining access to your private blog.

  Can you tell me which users are having trouble with it? Thanks!
