  Hi, I made a few secondary blogs on my main blog, but one of them says its private when I click on the blog tab. How can I make it not private.

  Also, I have pages that are password protected, but one of them keeps showing up unprotected. I keep going back to the page and it is checked password protected.

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

  Okay, now I am back to have my first problem again. I went on my blog and when I click on the page it is blocked. It is the tutoring page on teachemtoread. How can I unblock it?

  When “Tutoring” is clicked the result is a “protected blog log-in”as expected. I cannot see the page at all. Please log out of WordPress.com and clear your browser cache and cookies. Then when you are logged out click that link and you will see what the rest of us can see. http://teachemtoreadtutoring.wordpress.com/

  If you do not want that to be happening then edit the page and change the visibility setting in the Publish module. Then click “update”.

  I don’t want that to happen at all. Where is the publish module? It is a blog not a page right ??

  The publish module is the one on the far right hand side that has the big blue button that we click to Publish or Update posts or pages. In that module are the visibility settings.

  See here for the differences between static pages and posts.

  I guess I am confused because I have two problems. I think I will try to focus on one at a time. I want people to be able to access my tutoring blog from my “home” blog. I have 6 blogs all together. They are all accessible except when I click on the tutoring blog it comes up that it is private. I went to that blog but I cant figure out how to change the visibility. I am not good with technology!
