If you really want to make a category private so that only you as the creator of the page/site admin can view it, perhaps for notes of things to do on the site, then also delete the check in the site member column.
I think the interface is confusing there. if you uncheck all the boxes… it gave me the impression that no-one could see the page. I would find it more logical if there would be a remark or info saying that the owner and the admins would always be able to see that page… maybe a greyed-out checkbox… meaning this is checked and you can not uncheck this so relax you will always see the page you (owner) made.

Thanks for this idea. We'll be collecting suggestions for improvements to this feature and make a new version some time soon.

If you don't check the view->site memeber… then there will be no create->site memeber.
If there is no create->site member to check… a site member can not create pages… wich makes personal private pages impossible… for uses as "myfav" or "mykempies"… or shoppingkarts

Lets asume a member of a site creates a new category: page and insert content..
later an admin makes this page - and the category - private , meaning checks all boxes out - only for admins.
Has than the member - the creator - the right to see his own page - even he category is not permitted?

You can do the test. The thing I tested was the following:
I wanted to create a category where people can store thing only they have acces to. You can imagine a section "my_something" like "myfavourites". I can imagine that the user (wich is a member of the site) thinks this is a page he/she can only access… so nobody else can see this.
So i unchecked all the options in the "view". As a result that member now can not create pages… so that did not work for this case.

like page "user-xyz:my…thing" - before this category is made private?
