Private question – then blocked from seeing it

Solved4.82K viewsCore

When I create a question and check the checkbox to make it ‘private’… I assume that makes the question private so only admins can read it? (it’s not very clear what ‘private’ means)

But the problem is once I submit the private question… it becomes so private that not even the original poster of the question can see their own question hehe. After posting, I’m shown an error that I don’t have permission to view my own question:

I assume that it should be the admin that can see the question, but also the original poster, so they can see replies to their private question, right?
