Oh, dear God. Someone please tell me there is a way around this...

I created a blog for my current school on WordPress. For privacy reasons, we made it private and purchased the unlimited users. It looks like you can't do an RSS feed for a private blog. Is there some way around this? If not, my head is going to be on a platter. I can't believe I didn't check this. Anyone know anything about this?

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."

can you contact wordpress and see if they can make your blog public?

it seems like there are plugins to convert some sections as private, but not the other way around.

I made it private. I need it private. I could undo that, but can't. I'm calming down about it. I'm gonna just have to deal with the backlash of telling the parents they could do something they can't do and looking stupid. It's the stupidity tax I get to pay for not double-checking before I wrote the damn instructions and emailed them out to the whole freaking community.

I think you need to contact wordpress and see what your options are.

let me give you a for instance:

you might be able to email entries to posterous or something like that and have it generate an rss feed

or to a public wordpress blog.

Hey, vw, would something like this plugin work for you? It looks like it manages privacy for both the wordpress site and the rss feeds.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Gud, does that count as you rickrolling?

OMG I have to have that. If it came in a bigger size, I would make it our designated car stereo usb drive. That would rock. I might have to anyway, even at that size.
