How to: content of the network completely private? (a-la-Facebook)

How is it possible that all the activity, questions and blogupdates uploaded are private -a login first should be required-.

If there is no beautiful solution like a plugin, would it be possible (because that the network is only about 25 members) to create a .htaccess restriction and post the password to wordpress, so the user only needs to insert the password once?

Thanks!

Did you try searching the community?

This thread might be worth you reading , it will allow you to make the site completely private to all but registered logged in users, or a variation on ‘All’ if you wanted to show certain pages.

A quick search with the proper terms will bring up a number of options. This post in this thread should help. Once my BuddyPress Privacy Component is out in the wild, you will be able to easily do this with a simple radio button selection in the Site Admin menu of the component.

huh I make that 5 mins .

Can’t wait for the privacy plugin as that’s the way forward, I anticipate a massive rush to download it when released, just hope that rush is matched by a rush to donate even if token gestures If and when I recommend someone use a plugin in future I think I’ll be adding a reminder to donate a small token of gratitude to the author.
