  Is there a limit on the number of people who can post to a free, public wordpress blog? I’m trying to invite my entire class to post and comment on a blog, but after I got about halfway through, now all of my invitations are failing to send. I need to get these invites out ASAP or it will throw everything off in my class. I was able to invite the same number of students (around 60) last year with no problem. What do I do?

  Hi there, normally on a WPcom site, there’s a limit of sending 10 invitations at a time and then you’ll need your students to accept those invitations before you can send out more. https://wordpress.com/support/user-roles/#adding-users-to-your-site

  I’ve also gone ahead and flagged your thread for Staff attention in case this limitation has changed.

  We do have a limit, though we can’t reveal the specific number. Try smaller groups an hour apart, that should work. :)
