Is there a limit on the number of people you can invite in a day? I invited two users earlier and they worked just fine. Tried to invite another an hour or so later, and kept getting invite error, tried at least a dozen times closing the app, sending the link, trying to accept on a phone, laptop, and ipad. Even went so far as to create a burner gmail and plex account and sent that an invite, didn’t work either.

There is a limit. I don’t know the number but I’m sure it’s much higher than 2. What was the error you were getting?

That happens if they try to accept the invite from a Plex account with a different email address than where the invite was sent. Double check the email you sent to and that the user is signed into the correct accept when accepting the invite.

Okay, so invites still aren’t working, whether they had an account setup already or not. I’ve tested this on burner accounts that I created, on several different devices, and several other new people are getting nothing but invite errors.

PM me the email address of the Plex account you want to invite.
