Can I hide a journal entry from the public's eyes?

When you first publish an entry you can make it not publically viewable by clicking on the draft checkbox in your journal update box.

To change toggle the visibility status on entry you can also use the eye icon located at the bottom of the entry on your journal.

You can also hide portions of your journal entry by enclosing the part you want to hide between the [hide]hide tags[/hide]. The hidden portion will be visible only to you when you are logged in displayed in strike-thru format.
