  Hi, I’m trying to move my site from private to public, but when I go to launch it doesn’t show the free option it has in the past, only the paid options. Why is it no longer showing the free option to launch my site, and how do I get to it?

  For anyone saying that there should be a skip step option if I leave the top part blank, there isn’t. The entire page just stays blank instead.

  Alright I think I got it. Go to wordpress.com/settings

  Then scroll down to privacy. It won’t give you an option to switch to public since you have not “launched” ye. Click the “launch site” button. For some reason the “launch site” buttons on the home page were giving me the same trouble you are having, but this one allowed me to launch with my free address… weird

  Hi all,

  Hi there,

  Please try launching them by going to My Sites > Manage > Settings > General > Launch Site.
