Can’t invite Author – invitation error
-
“I’m trying to invite a collaborator (Author role) to my site apostoloscatsportscorner.wordpress.com, but every attempt fails with the error: ‘Sorry, we couldn’t process your invitations. Please try again later.’ I’ve verified my account email, waited over 48 hours, tried different browsers, and launched the site — the error persists every time. Could someone please check server-side logs to see what’s blocking this?”
The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

When the user invitation tool throws the error ‘Sorry, we couldn’t process your invitations. Please try again later’ across multiple browsers, it typically points to a backend security flag or rate limit on the invite dispatch system. This can happen if the email address being invited has an existing unverified WordPress.com pending state, or if automated anti-spam filters temporarily lock the invitation trigger for the site. Since you have already verified your email and launched the site, this will require staff assistance to clear.I have flagged this thread for Staff / Happiness Engineers so they can check the server logs for apostoloscatsportscorner.wordpress.com, reset the invitation pipeline, and help you add your collaborator smoothly!
