 * I’ve read [https://wordpress.org/support/topic/unpublished-post-shows-up-in-related-box/](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/unpublished-post-shows-up-in-related-box/)
   and can see that showing Drafts is standard for logged in users who can edit.
   Is there a way that I can disable this so that everyone sees the same thing, 
   just published posts?
