 * Hello,
 * I upgrade from wp 1.5 to wp 1.5.1.1 this morning by following the [http://wordpress.org/support/topic/33189](http://wordpress.org/support/topic/33189)
   method. After the upgrade, (and execute /wp-admin/upgrade.php) all the posts 
   with a private status were visible on the front and archive pages & i had to 
   put them in “draft” to hide them again.
 * Any help ?

 * If you’re logged in, you will see your private posts.

 * Did you log out and clear your cache? Please paste a link of a private post that
   is visable so we can check it.

   solve it right now.

 * YES! I mentioned this ‘bug’ too, in another thread, when I upgraded. Its a bit
   annoying having to have a 2nd webpage open-this time logged in as something less
   than admin-to know what is visible to non-admins. At least compared to v1.5. 
   If private posts could at least be flagged, that would help…cuz you forget which
   are private and which aren’t until you go back to the admin page again.
 * cheers!

 * …and I can’t count how many times I’ve cleared my cache since the upgrade, albeit
   for different reasons. The ‘bug’ (if it is that?) is maintained.

 * are you sure it’s a bug? If so you can submit it as such and wait for 1.5.1.2
   or maybe there’s an easier fix (btw, I’m not saying there will be a 1.5.1.2, 
   but in case there are other bugs maybe)
