  Hi,

  I am working hard to have a company to use WordPress.com and it seems that there is problem that have been brought to this forum in 2012 and still not resolved :

  I am inviting someone in a private blog and the invite is well sent, receive in her inbox and clicked to confirm the invite but the link lead her to her blog dashboard. On my side, her status still in « waiting » mode. I tried few times with the same result each time.

  I’ve seen a topic about that problem and surprisingly, this topic have been closed withtout any solution at all…

  See here : https://en.forums.wordpress.com/topic/why-cant-my-invited-authors-join-my-blog?replies=20

  Can anybody help me on this?

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

  Hi mehojarvis,

  Please make sure that the person you are inviting is logged out first from their WordPress account. After that, click the blue Accept Invitation in the invitation email. This will take them to your private blog but needs to log in first using their WordPress.com account.

  …Do we have to guess this ourselves or is it written somewhere?

  Thank you.

  You can also try to copy and paste the link from the invitation email to your browser’s address bar as suggested in the topic you referenced.
