  How are some of my posts not being found when I search my blog. I understand I have a protected blog, and password protected pages, but surely when people are connected the search should still show these pages?

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

  Hi there,

  Password protected posts should still appear in site searches. When I search your blog for “Prayer Wall” for example, password protected posts are returned correctly. Can you let me know what search term you’re using that isn’t pulling up the correct results?

  Hi Jeremy,
  When people searching type in members meeting information it doesn’t find that post. I know that post is an older one, that I keep adding information to, would that have anything to do with it?
  Thanks
  Steve

  When I search, as myself, I can find them, but visitors to the blog can’t anything in the site search.
  When I try on my Mac, it finds them fine, but thats me being logged in to wordpress, when I try and search on my iPad, with whatever search I put in it comes back ‘sorry but nothing matched your search terms.’
  Hope this helps find the solution?

  Hey Steve,

  Thanks for clarifying. I’m digging into this a bit to see if this is the expected behavior or not. I’ll let you know as soon as I know more!
