‘Private’ publishing not private
-
I used that option to keep a draft article in development — private — yet the wp mechanisms made the article visible on my blog. I had to delete it.
You need to check the code and scripts on this.
Site: https://kannonmcafee.wordpress.com.
WP.com: Yes
Correct account: Yes -
Hi @kannonmcafee, it would be visible to you if you are logged into the account that owns the site. Is that what you saw?
You can go to https://wordpress.com/posts/trashed (or https://wordpress.com/pages/trashed ) to restore the post. Then try viewing it from an incognito window, or from another browser where you aren’t logged in.
If you still see it there, go to https://wordpress.com/me/account just to confirm you’re logged out. Click the log out button there and try once more. A private page will show to people who are logged into WordPress.com and who are users on that site. But it will not show for others.
