  Hi there
  I am wanting my newly created site to be private, not ‘coming soon’. I have gone to settings – general as the guide advises however there is no option for privacy from there to make my site private. Any ideas?
  Thanks

  Site: (email visible only to moderators and staff).
  WP.com: Yes
  Correct account: Yes

  Hi there,

  You have to launch your site before making it private. All un-launched sites are set to coming soon.

  You can launch your site from here:
