  Help my book group is loosing faith in wordpress. com. Several members of the group are having trouble logging into the blog. They are invited to the site as Administrators. Is there a limit to the number of Administrators a site can have? The people having trouble logging on have set up an account, but the password is denied. Even after they have reset it. Do I as the person sending the invite need to do something?

  The other issue is they accept the invite, but don’t know how to get to the blog.

  The blog name is 1996bookgroup.wordpress.com

  Thanks for your help

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

  No but only one is recommended.

  The other issue is they accept the invite, but don’t know how to get to the blog.

  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.

  I’ll tag this thread for Staff assistance. Will you please provide a couple of usernames for those WordPress.com bloggers who did accept the invitation s as well as a couple of email addresses for those who do not have WordPress.com accounts? The software will redact ie. HIDE the email addresses so only Staff can see them. After you do that subscribe to the thread so you are notified when they respond and please be patient while waiting.

  Hi there,

  Yes, please let me know some of the email addresses or usernames of those who aren’t able to get logged in. I may have to refer them to our account recovery process, but if I can help I will be happy to!
