    It is really frustrating that every time I try to access my blog through typing out my site name in the search bar, it shows that I am on private. I’m not on private! It clearly states my setting is on public, so why is it that WordPress keeps saying that im private?!?!?

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

    Are you seeing the “private” notice in the address bar in your browser? Is there also a little lock showing? If this is what you are seeing, it doesn’t mean your site is private, just your connection to it. This is because WordPress.com gives us free security certificates and to help make our site more secure.
