  Hi everyone,

  I couldn’t find an answer to this question, so I’m not sure if it’s just me.

  When I go to Settings>>Sharing in my wordpress.com hosted blog, the only available services are email and print, even though my previous blogs hosted on wordpress.com had options like Facebook and Twitter available.

  Does anyone know whether these services are still available, or how I can add them?

  Thanks,
  Jolie

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

  http://becomingatantrika.wordpress.com/ is the blog?

  Sounds to me like you’re talking about a WordPress.ORG install without Jetpack.

  Hi Jolie,

  It looks like the blog is set to be private. If you go to Settings>Privacy, there are two options at the top of the page. Either can be set to make the blog publicly viewable:

  Allow search engines to index this site. -or-
  Ask search engines not to index this site.

  Oh, if the blog is private then OF COURSE sharing is disabled.

  Lol – *forehead slap*

  No longer private – everything’s back to normal. Thanks for your help Josh!
