# Does this plugin exist for WP?

 * I would like to create/edit a post, without the post being added to the blog 
   as a blog post…What I get: To create a post/page, to edit the post or page, access
   the url to the post/page. What I do not need: Is for the post that I create to
   show up along with my other published posts. Is there some type of external plugin
   that will let you create posts/pages, but not add them to the blog as a normal
   published post?
    Thanks

 * I’m not sure you would need a plugin for that. I think all you might need to 
   do is put those posts and pages in draft or private status, instead of published
   status.
 * [edit] Some reference material: [Writing Posts](http://codex.wordpress.org/Writing_Posts)
   and [Descriptions of Post Fields](http://codex.wordpress.org/Writing_Posts#Descriptions_of_Post_Fields)–_“
   Private posts are visible only to you (and to other editors or admins within 
   your site)”_

 * I did not think about that.
 * I will give that a try.

 * Sorry to say that did not work; You actually provided the answer that it was 
   not going to work in your second statement.
 * Draft shows 404 page not found.
    Private only shows to admin, and once logged
   out, then shows 404 page not found.
 * I need the public to be able to see the URL/page, but
    only where I decide to
   place the link to the page…

 * See if this is closer to what you have in mind. [http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/wp-hide-post/](http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/wp-hide-post/)

 * Thank-You
