    Hi,

    I want to post something without notifying my email subscribers. It this possible? I only want to do it for the one post.

    Thanks,
    Abby

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

    The short answer is you cannot publish a new post without it appearing in your RSS Feed for entries (posts). We cannot set the number of posts appearing in our RSS feeds here > Settings > Reading to less than 1 post.

    Here’s a workaround though –

    One thought I just had, and I have no idea if it will work, would be to set the blog to private, publish those posts you do not want going out, and when done set the blog back to public. As I said, I don’t know if this will work or not. I’ve never tried it.

    Source Thread.

    Hi there,

    That is a quite old thread @tony733t linked to, but that workaround is still valid (or it was last time I tested it a few months ago :) )

    Go to My Site ->Settings ->Privacy and set your entire site to private. Publish the post. Then set the site back to public. Email notifications should not go out for a post published while the site is private.
