Trying to make blog public, but it is not working

    My blog posts are private for some reason and only allowing “subscribers” to view my content, however, when I set it to public, it remained private. I tried google chrome as well as microsoft edge, and I cleared my cache. I am STILL having this issue. How do I fix it?

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

    Hi there!

    I think there are two things at play here.

    First, the Newsletter access should be set to “Everybody” if you want the post to be visible to everyone, including to non-subscribers. See the screenshot below for reference:

    Secondly, the Newsletter is a relatively new feature, and there may be compatibility issues with the retired theme you’re using. May I suggest switching to a newer theme in our theme gallery? You can learn more about switching themes here:
