  Is there a way to ensure that my blog cannot be found through friend finder? My email address seems to be hidden, but I was wondering if my blog could still be found through Friend Finder if someone has access to the email address associated with my account?

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

  the staff are the only ones that have access to the email associated with your account – and they tell nobody what your email address is – your email address is private info and it would take a court order for someone to get it

  let me try and be a little more specific–

  i was browsing through the wordpress app on my iphone, found the find friends option, selected “Address Book”, and a bunch of people’s blogs came up whose contacts I have saved.

  I’m assuming this is done by email, but could you clarify, if not by email, than what information is linking these blogs with the information in my phone?

  If you haven’t already guessed, I just want to ensure that anyone I know, in the same situation, won’t be able to view my blog

  To sum things up–

  I don’t want people I know, whom already have access to my email address, to be able to find my wordpress, through the app, or any other process available.

  While I would prefer to not have a separate email specifically for this requirement, it may be necessary. I know twitter has an option where you can select whether or not you want your account to be searchable by phone number and was hoping there would be some similar option on wordpress, but have been unable to find anything yet

  thanks
