Unable to change post from "Public" to "Private"

    Making the post visibility from “Public” to “Private” is not working.
    I’m able to select the “Password Protected” option but not the “Private” button.

    Please check and let me know. It remains same across all my posts and is super disappointing. I have no plugins installed.
    Hope to hear a resolution soon.

    Thanks,

    Hi there,

    It seems I am able to successfully set the Private option on your site. I’ve shot a vide here so you can see: https://d.pr/v/NS4H2Q

    Out of curiosity, what happens if you try to set your post to Private? Do you not see the pop up (asking you to approve the change) as you see in my video? Or is something else missing.

    If you clear your browser cache, cookies, and make sure that popups are not blocked, are you then able to set posts to private?

    You can clear your cache and cookies based on the steps google recommends here: https://support.google.com/accounts/answer/32050

    Also make sure you are not blocking any “3rd party cookies” as explained in that guide as well.

    If you continue to have loading issues after completing those steps, I would like you to try another browser instead, like Firefox. Are you able to set posts to private if you use a browser other than Chrome?

    Thanks for the additional info!
