hiding past posts
-
I would like to hide certain posts that I had done in the past. I don’t want to delete them – but just want to hide them from anybody who accesses my blog.
The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

Go to My Sites > Blog Posts. Click “Edit” underneath post you wish to make private. In the upper right corner of the screen, there will be an eye-shaped icon. Click that to see three options for the post’s visibility: public (viewable by anyone), private (viewable by site administrators and editors only), and password protected (viewable by people with whom you share the password). Select “private” and then confirm your choice when prompted. Repeat these steps for each post that you wish to hide.
If you have a lot of posts to make private, you may want to do them in bulk using WP-Admin. Add “/wp-admin” to the end of your site url (example: rajivsramblings.wordpress.com/wp-admin). Navigate to Posts > All Posts. Place a checkmark in the box next to each post that you wish to hide. Click the dropdown menu option near the top that reads, “Bulk Action” and select “Edit”. Click the “Apply” button next to it. That will bring up a bulk edit section showing the posts you’ve selected. Look for an option labelled, “Status” and change the dropdown next to it to “Private”. Click the “Update” button.
