A WordPress plugin that adds an "Unlisted" visibility option. Based from preliminary work) by nacin.
Requires WordPress 4.4+.
- Activate plugin.
- Edit any post and select the new "Unlisted" setting under the "Visibility" options dropdown panel.
Notes
- An unlisted post is technically a private post, but allows users with the direct link to view the item.
- Comments left on unlisted posts are added to the comment moderation queue, and not approved automatically. (todo: perhaps remove this check?)
- Degrades well if plugin is deactivated. If plugin is deactivated, post still remains private.
GPLv2 or later.
