Blogs and Privacy

Hi everyone,

I just wanted to point out that blogs can be public or private – most general blogs are public, but some students in the course prefer to make their blogs private (for a number of reasons) and that is fine too. If your blog is public, just note that the general public can access this with a fair amount of difficulty – don’t think it would interest too many people, and they would have to be very persistent, but thought I would raise this anyway.

If you wish to make your blog private, go to WP admin on your blog, scroll down to setting, click on reading and tick the “make blog private’. Here is a weblink which also provides more details: https://en.support.wordpress.com/settings/privacy-settings/ If your blog is private, myself and students will need to request access – just click accept if we request this at some stage 🙂

All the best, Cathy
