  Hi-
  at the beginning, while preparing the blog to be public, l changed the site visibility setting to ‘i would like it to be private’. Now it’s ready to publish, changed the settings (yesterday) and yet it can’t be public.
  What can l do?

  thanks, Elizabeth Ross

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

  https://festivaldevideoartechinas.wordpress.com/ – is public and can be seen by anyone

  Try clearing your browser cache and forcing a page reload

  hi auxclass.
  cleared cache and reloaded page, but it still can’t be shared as an open blog, as l’ve been trying to share it in facebook. If you click the icon the link works, but the message is: protected blog, which prevents people to click on the icon and link… weird.

  This happens when your site has ever been set to Private and then made Public later on. You need to follow these instructions:
