Hmmm... Tamil, I'm assuming that it was a blank post, with content to be added later. Did you try to make a comment? I did and got a 404 consistently, I tried 5 times. Regrdless, it does say "private access" so we shouldn't even be seeing that page, right?

Nope content is there but not shown. I noticed this already in one of my private post. You can't see post content but you can see comments.

This is because post id is 0.

This is correct, and we'll look into this right away! Note that you'll need to know the post url to see the comments, and since the post is private only you have the url. So in theory nobody will see the comments anyway.

Ok, but my main reason for making this thread is that this isn't my account, so I shouldn't even know this blog post exists at all. worried

We've fixed this issue now, all comments for private posts are now hidden again.

As a sidenote, the url in the first post isn't actually a blog post. The 'show.dml/0' points to a non-existing blog post, which normally would just show nothing. The same bug that caused the comments to be shown also caused other content to be shown, like the 'Private access' text. This is also fixed, so it shows nothing again :-)

Thanks for letting us know about this! up
