  Hi I just opened the blog and have seen this option in the settings and chose “private” then, but since logging in once more I cannot find it there anymore between the options MEDIA and SHARING or elsewhere to make it public. Help would be great!

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

  Try clicking on users and personal settings. I too don’t have the privacy button.

  It looks like the Staff is tinkering today – I have flagged this for their attention

  The privacy settings are in your blog’s Dashboard at Settings -> Private.

  Sorry about that, check Settings -> Reading now. I’ll update the support docs.

  For some context the option used to be at Settings > Privacy. As part of some changes we’re working on right now that’s moved to Settings > Reading.

  For even more context it’s all part of getting WordPress 3.5 merged on to WordPress.com. :)

  So Privacy isn’t under Privacy any more? Okay.

  Correct, there is no more Settings -> Privacy option. It’s all under Settings -> Reading now.

  Putting “Privacy” in bold would help a bit – I did look in the Read section but the type was too small for my old eyes –

  @RC – I thought you always knew the secret handshake :)

  Thanks for the update –

  Ah, that’s why I can’t authorise invitees as the link goes to the old options- privacy.
