The status of a blog entry determines who will be able to read it. If the status is set to draft, only you will be able to read it. This allows you save a blog entry to work on and publish at a later date. If the status is set to private, the blog entry will only be readable by the members of the access group you select. You may create or manage access groups by clicking here. Finally, if the status is set to public, everyone will be able to view the blog entry. You may adjust this setting at any time.
