Users not being granted access even after accepting invitation

  • Unknown's avatar

    I am hosting multiple blogs in which no matter how many times I invite students to my blog and they accept in their email, they are not coming up as a “author” or even in my Users at all. I have physically watched students register, accept invite etc and they still cannot get in. It winds up being a few students for each of my blogs. The amount of time I have spent on this is ridiculous. Some users I have sent dozens of invites to! HELP!

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

    If your class is sharing computers, make sure that the correct user is logged in to WordPress.com before the student clicks on the ‘Accept’ link.

    One way to completely avoid this problem is to log out of WordPress.com completely, and then click on the ‘Accept’ link.

    Let me know if you’re still seeing issues once you’re logged into the correct account.
