  Hi @dribblingpensioner! I can’t add an author to your blog for you, but I’m happy to walk to you through the process. Make sure you have the Author’s username or email correct so they receive the invitation. They will not be confirmed as an Author on your site until they have accepted the invitation.

  You can read more on how to add users here:

  I hope this helps!

  Thanks for answering, I have done this 160 times on the blog but this time it did not work, it happened twice months ago and the mod did it for me.

  What exactly did not work? I can see you added a new user, charmedchaos12, two days ago, but I see no pending invitation for the username “storyteller”. Did you send them an invitation via My Site ->People ->Add? Please also try it from this page:

  https://poetscornerblog.wordpress.com/wp-admin/users.php?page=wpcom-invite-users&paged=1

  If it won’t work from either location, please clear your browser cache and cookies, then log back in and try again.

  I always use this and it always works

  After the event I deleted it because I found out they gave me the wrong name

  Thanks for your help.

  Ah, okay. The wrong username would pose a problem :)

  You ask them for their username and they come back with something stupid :)
