  Hi there,

  Can you walk me through the steps you’re taking? Where exactly are you seeing this message?

  You will need to sign out of your account, before clicking on the activation link if you’re inviting another user to the blog.

  I’m getting responses from invitees saying that they are not able to contribute to my blog. I sent a test message to myself and it is showing up under USERS as still WAITING.

  You won’t be able to click the link yourself. Adding a user is now a user-facing feature. You’ll need to invite them, and they’ll need to accept the invite themselves.

  Have the invitees accepted their invitations?
