  I created a blog and put my first post on.
  When I go into my dashboard, my post is there, but it doesn’t appear to anyone else who wants to view it.
  How can I fix this?

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

  first of all did you publish your post?
  if not click on the button that says “publish” on Editor page,

  if you did already publish the post and can see it pleas give the URL starting with http://

  All I can see is your homepage thats linked to your user name in the forum.

  When you delete the “Hello World” post you create a “404” and normally that error message disappears after you publish a post.

  This is why dlager has asked you to be sure your published your post and it’s not merely a draft post. It’s also why he has asked you to post the URL for the post.

  The post says it’s published, because a (1) comes up next to Published Posts.
  I just modified the “Hello World” post to make it say what I wanted it to.
  I’m not sure about the URL though, I should check that…

  Go to settings > reading and make sure you have your main page set to display the posts and not a static front page. On your RSS feed I see two posts so they are published.
