  When an invitee has accepted the invitation to join my private blog do I have to confirm this acceptance before I can go to “All Users” and change the role from viewer to author?
  Blog url: http://reimerfamilyreunion.wordpress.com/

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

  Hey there,

  There should be no action required on your part after a user accepts your invitation.

  If you’d like your user to appear in your blog’s user list so you can set them as an author, you should invite them via the “Invite New” link at the top of the “Users” tab–here’s a direct link to that page for the blog you specified:
  https://reimerfamilyreunion.wordpress.com/wp-admin/users.php

  Inviting a user via the Settings -> Privacy page will merely add them as a reader.

  Please let me know if I can be of any further help.

  Best,
  P.
