  While I’m reconstructing my blog, how do I temporarily close my blog to the public?

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

  Hiya,

  You can temporarily set your blog to ‘Private’ by going to the following link, and choosing: “I would like my site to be private, visible only to users I choose”

  http://lonudotorg.wordpress.com/wp-admin/options-reading.php

  When you’re ready to have the site Public again, simply go back to that page and select: “Allow search engines to index this site”

  There is more info on this available at:

  Hope this helps!

  Let me know if you have any further questions
