  How do I identify an invited user when he/she has changed from email address to a new username? I want to keep track of all my invitees to my private blog.
  Blog url: http://whittredge.wordpress.com/

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

  Hi,

  We don’t display the email address of a WordPress.com user name, but you can view all invites you’ve sent in Users -> Invite New in the Past Invitations table, and view the current viewers on your blog in Settings -> Privacy.

  Let me know if you have any other questions.

  Bryan,
  I teach a class and I want the blog to be viewed only by people I invite. It might be up to 50 people.
  Do they have to be registered with WordPress.com? or can they use their regular email? How many can I limit this to?

  I suppose my other option would be to move the blog and get a plugin like BuddyPress.

  Any suggestions?

  Thanks,

  JIM

  Hi Jim,

  Yes, they’ll need to have a WordPress.com username. If they don’t have one, they can signup along the process of accepting the invite to your blog.

  How many can I limit this to?

  You can send up to ten user invites at a time, but there isn’t a limit.

  I hope this helps! :-)
