Private Community – Limit what logged out users may see.

I would like to encourage people to register and become a website member by limiting which parts of the buddypress website they can view. Ideally, I would like to designate which pages are only viewable to logged-in users, and if someone who is not logged-in tries to view the page then they are redirected to a registration form. I’m running BP 1.6, on WP 3.4. I spotted the BuddyPress Private Community plugin but it hasn’t been tested in version 3.x yet – and some report that it’s broken. So, any suggestion on how to achieve this?

Cool, thanks – admittedly, I’m a little intimidated modifying the theme code, or adding new plugins. But, I have been itching to get my hands dirty under the hood and learn how to do wordpress specifici coding, so this will be a good chance and resource to dive in. I might have to poke you later once I get this rolling. Thanks for your input Aces.

Simpler way is to install wordpress access control, this adds a option to every page to make it avalible to be viewable by only vistitors, logged in users and even has a age control on it, you can all set a redirect page incase somone types in the url as this will also remove any page which is hidden from the viewer type from the menu, check it out its awesome
