  Hi,

  I’m using Triton Lite theme.

  My blog https://hallyufling.wordpress.com/ has some protected posts.

  I’m shocked to note that excerpt of these protected post are displayed. Is there some coding errors or its build-in in the themes? If its build-in then I have no choice but to choose other themes but its such a hassle because I hate to customise.

  Thanks in advance for any help/advise.

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

  Sounds like an undocumented “feature”

  I have flagged this for staff attention

  I forgot to add that I do not do any excerpt to any of my post.

  Hi, me again.

  When I checked my blog again, excerpt from the protected posts has disappeared. In its place it shows;

  There is no excerpt because this is a protected post.

  That is so much better.

  Thank god I did a print-screen of the ‘problem’ just in case anyone wants a proof because I didn’t imagine it – lol.

  Fyi, I just started to used Triton 2dys ago, I must have triggered something when I messed around. That’s why I hate to change theme …

  Thank you for reading this.

  Is it possible you were logged in when you saw the excerpts from your protected posts?

  Could you provide links to a few posts where you saw excerpts for protected related posts so I can do some testing? Thanks!

  Thanks for those links.

  I checked both posts, but none of the related posts below are protected posts, here’s what I’m seeing:

  1) Below https://hallyufling.wordpress.com/2014/12/16/return-of-superman-ep-57-preview/

  

  2) Below https://hallyufling.wordpress.com/2015/04/19/return-of-superman-ep-74-health-report-card/

  

  If there’s another post where you’re seeing protected posts in the Related area, just let me know.

  Hi Kathryn,

  Sorry to say but I’m a bit confused here. Why do you mentioned Related area?

  Excerpt from protected posts were seen on the ‘landing’ page (the page where my latest posts are shown), not on Related areas.

  I’ve never paid any attention to the Related areas before, now you get me paranoid – lol.

  But if I’ve come any, I’ll let you know.

  Regards

  Oops, I misunderstood your original problem, very sorry about that!

  You mentioned that you took a screenshot – could you upload the screenshot to your media library so I can take a look? Thanks!

  Got the screenshot, thanks!

  Is it possible that you had only recently marked those posts as private before taking the screenshot? I’m wondering if this is some sort of caching issue.

  Hi Kathryn,

  I remembered clearing my cache etc and probably restarted my computer as well. Maybe if it happened again, I will pay more attention.

  I have stopped messing around customising and in fact am thinking of changing to a new theme because my images/pics placement goes haywire when I convert into this theme.

  Thanks for your attention Kathryn.
