Is there a limit to the number of authors in a secondary blog?

  • Unknown's avatar

    I see where I can only invite ten new people at any one time, but now more than ten of them have accepted. I’m working to transition an email listserv to a group blog, and there are probably over a hundred people on the listserv. Does anyone know if there is a limit to the total number of authors in a secondary blog?

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

    There is no limit to the total number. However, there is a spam prevention limit to the number of invitations that can be sent out at one time and it is 10. Then wait and send out ten more.

    The invitees will need to click the “Accept Invitation” button in the invitation email. If they are logged into their WordPress.com account, they will be taken directly to your blog. If not, they will be taken to the log-in screen, where they can either log in or create a new user account.

    Note that users who create a new WordPress.com account at that point will still need to return to the invitation email and click the “Accept Invitation” button after doing so.
