  A friend who regularly reads my blog posts said today that now she is being asked to sign up by WordPress with a user name and password, something she has never had to do before. Has the policy changed ?

  Hello! Have you changed the site’s privacy settings at all? Either to private, or password protected?

  Okay, I’m tagging for a mod to review this.

  I’m not getting any popups asking for a username and password on my end, and I’m not yet sure why this is happening for your friend.

  After checking, I realize I may have given out the wrong link:
  https://wordpress.com/post/markspitzerdesigns.wordpress.com/12187

  instead of:
  https://markspitzerdesigns.wordpress.com/2017/04/14/ocean-shores/

  my bad – thanks for helping
