  When I posted my last blog it appeared with the word protected in front of it. I didn’t ask for it to be protected. I don’t want it protected. How do i change that?

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

  Edit the post and change the post visibility setting to public.

  When you published the post, you must’ve accidentally clicked “password protected” instead of “public”. If it was your first time, It would’ve prompted you to put in a password though. You can edit your post and switch it back to public.
