  Hi,

  I have a problem getting additional Editors (or Authors) to my blog.
  I have my principal account to WordPress: (email visible only to moderators and staff) and my blog is rationaalisuusjausko.com
  I have my secondary account: to WordPress: (email visible only to moderators and staff) (with no blogs)
  I logged on with my primary account and sent an invitiation (to be an Editor) to (email visible only to moderators and staff)
  In the email I accepted the invitation
  I got to log in to WordPress with the secondary account. As I did this and selected “My Sites” there was nothing.
  As I logged out and then back in again with my primary account I saw that my invitation was still “Waiting”.

  Can you help me with this?

  And please note: the account (email visible only to moderators and staff) is just my test account 
  my real purpose is to get account arituhkanen ((email visible only to moderators and staff)) to share my blog as an Editor. So if you need to manually do Editor additions please add Ari Tuhkanen also as an Editor (I was yesterday with Ari and we accepted the invitation together on his workstation but we cannot see the result)

  Best regards,
  Pertti

  PS. I saw that other people had had the same problem but I did not find any good solution there.

  PPS. I have a PDF with screen shots if you provide an email address to send it to

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

  Hello there!

  So sorry to hear that you are having trouble adding users.

  I have deleted the old invitation, and sent a new one to the WordPress.com user, arituhkanen. If the response works, please do let me know. If not, I shall manually add the user to your site.

  Looking forward to hearing from you. Thanks very much.

  Hi,

  thank you. I see now arituhkanen as an editor also.

  I will check with him that he actually can start publishing, but this looks good.

  Best regards,
  Pertti
