Hey guys,

This is not going to be the usual question - at least not for me.

This are the circumstances:

1. I have a website that is set NO-follow site wide.
2. It's not important how I get my subscribers - the important part is that they can download a different item each day from a different post/URL
3. Once that day has passed (24 hours), the published post has no further use.
4. I could just trash the used post, but as it takes me some time to build it, I feel like keeping it.

Now - there is a feature where I could change the published post status to Pending or Draft.

Here goes the question:

Could a user that grabbed the previously posted URL get the post or will it remain hidden by its new PENDING or DRAFT status?

Weird and I haven't done this before.

Your thoughts?

THANKS for your feedback

@Mods can move it if this thread is in the wrong section.
 
From what I know, if a post is unpublished, you as an admin can get to it, but other users won't see it. They will be taken to a 404 usually.
