  Hi, the Create Another Blog function is not working. I cleared the cache, checked browser compatibility and they’re fine. What should I do?

  Second, I have a blog on which I have a few posts. How can I make those posts invisible without deleting them? Thanks.

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

  2. You can make any post or page visibility private or password protected.

  1. I don’t know why creating a blog is not working for you. Have you created a slough of blogs in short order? If you did then the software could be thinking you are a spammer.

  Hi there,

  Hi, the Create Another Blog function is not working. I cleared the cache, checked browser compatibility and they’re fine. What should I do?

  Thanks for taking those steps. I tested the button on my end, and it works for me (Chrome on a Mac) so do you think you can do me a favor and try a different browser (other than Chrome) or a even a different computer if you can, and see if the problem persists?

  Hope that helps. If you are still having problems after trying the above steps, let me know and I will be happy to take a closer look.

  I tried Firefox 26 on a PC, IE11 and Chrome too and they all work for me.
  P.S. Happy holidays!

  Hi, thanks for your responses. The Create Button is still not working. In fact, I got into my Dashboard after years, and imported some stuff from my Blogger blog as backup. That is Blog #1 on WP and that worked without a problem.

  I tried to create another blog (to import my photo blog) and I’m failing there. I use Chrome and now tried doing it in Mozilla, no luck.

  I have a second blog on WP as well, linked to the same account. So I thought I could delete the posts in that blog and import the photo blog – but I have 132 posts there – I see there is a bulk action for ‘move to trash’. How long do the posts stay in trash?

  I believe it’s two weeks, but it could be less. Why not simply set them to Private instead? You can use the bulk editor to do that.

  Several people are reporting issues similar to yours, but slightly different. I’m wondering if the new blocks on the internet that some countries such as the UK have put in place might be blocking parts of WordPress.com.

  The blog is private already, i want to make it public after importing the photo blog, but don’t want the old material showing up.
