Site Displaying Only When Logged In

    Hello, I have not used WordPress in a while, and recently began a new blog. I have added 3 new posts to the blog, and when I am logged in, I can type in the blog address (worninside.wordpress.com) and the blog will come up. However, if I log out and try to type in the site address, I get a message saying that it can’t be found (but it somehow has the site name and tagline of the site). Does anyone know what could be happening here and how I could fix it?

    Thank you in advance for any advice!

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

    Hi there,

    I can access your site just fine while logged out. Seeing a “Page not found” error on your site is not the same thing as not seeing your site at all.

    You’re seeing that “Page not found” error, because you’ve set your site’s front page to draft, so only logged-in admins on the site can see it.

    Go to My Site ->Site ->Pages and publish your site’s front page, and it will be visible to logged-out visitors as well.

    Have a great day,
