  It is extremely difficult to add a user to our private blog! I send an invite, they accept and nothing happens. How do I add to the users allowed to access site?

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

  Hi Bob,

  I’m sorry for the trouble! There are a couple things that could be causing trouble:

  1. Each person must set up a WordPress.com account if they haven’t yet. They can head to the following link to sign up for a WordPress.com account without creating a new blog of their own:

  https://signup.wordpress.com/signup/?user=1

  2. If they already have an account, they may need to sign in to their account before clicking the “Accept Invitation” button. In some cases, they may need to copy the link from the invitation email and paste it in their browser if the button doesn’t work correctly.

  If those steps don’t resolve it for you, please let me know!
