Log-in required by other users

Hi all,
I have set up the above website but when I try to share the link with others, it takes them to the log-in page where my email and password have to be entered.
This is not a problem I have had on any of my other WordPress sites so I wondered if anyone had a solution?
Thanks,
Sam
The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

Hi @samharris96,
What link are you sharing with others? If you’re sharing a link to your dashboard, it will prompt visitors to login. The correct link to share is the following: http://westyorkshiregoalballclub.wordpress.com/
If you’re referring to another site, can you please share its URL?

Hi staff-sheva,
Jumped the gun a bit there, sorry! It seems as though the link takes you to the homepage but once you try to click on one of the menu options eg what is Goalball, a login is required.
Any further help would be much appreciated!

That’s because you have the pages linked to their editor, not the public page.
Follow the steps here to get your page’s public URL: https://wordpress.com/support/pages/#how-to-find-the-public-link-of-a-page

Hi Macmanx,
I followed that link and copied the link to my pages and users are able to access the pages through the individual links but then are directed to login if they wanted to visit another page on the site.
If you contrast that with another of my sites (https://samharrisportfolio.wordpress.com), it lets users freely navigate the site.
Thanks!

All of your pages, those blue buttons on https://westyorkshiregoalballclub.wordpress.com/ are still linked to the WordPress.com editor, like https://wordpress.com/page/westyorkshiregoalballclub.wordpress.com/46
They are not linked to their public URL, like https://westyorkshiregoalballclub.wordpress.com/training-sessions/
Please follow the steps here to get your page’s public URL: https://wordpress.com/support/pages/#how-to-find-the-public-link-of-a-page
And then edit those buttons to point to the page’s public URL.
