Restrict WordPress to Private

1 Views

I want to set up a private WordPress site, with only 2 users, all I need is a simple private site functionality, with visitors unable to see anything when trying to login, only being redirected to the login page. RSS should also be blocked.

I have found one plugin which does this, but it doesn’t seem to be maintained, any others which do the same thing and are maintained?

  1. Use this :

    http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/password-protected/

    A very simple way to quickly password protect your WordPress site with
    a single password. Integrates seamlessly into your WordPress privacy
    settings.

    How can I change the WordPress logo to a different image?

    Install and configure the Login Logo plugin by Mark Jaquith. This will
    change the logo on your password entry page AND also your admin login
    page.

    enter image description here

  2. If you can, use apache basic authentication, much easier than trying to do this with a WP plugin, especially if you only have 2 users for the site.

  4. I’ve been working on this a little bit, and this solution adds a new set of options to the “Privacy” settings page.

    function oxide_setup_options() {
    register_setting('oxide-privacy', 'blog_open');
    $blog_open = get_option('blog_open');
    if ( empty( $blog_open ) ) {
        add_option('blog_open', '0');
    }
}
add_action('admin_init', 'oxide_setup_options');
function oxide_restrict_toggle() { ?>
<?php settings_fields('oxide-privacy'); ?>
<legend class="screen-reader-text"><span><?php _e( 'Site Access Restriction' ); ?> </span></legend>
<input id="blog-open" type="radio" name="blog_open" value="1" <?php checked('1', get_option('blog_open')); ?> />
<label for="blog-open"><?php _e( 'Allow access to all users.' );?></label><br/>
<input id="blog-closed" type="radio" name="blog_open" value="0" <?php checked('0', get_option('blog_open')); ?> />
<label for="blog-closed"><?php _e( 'Restrict access to logged in users.' ); ?></label>
<p class="description"><?php _e( 'Note: This option blocks access to your site &mdash; like a boss.' ); ?></p>
<?php do_settings_fields('oxide-privacy', 'default'); ?>
<?php }
add_action('blog_privacy_selector', 'oxide_restrict_toggle');
function oxide_restrict_access() {
    if ( !get_option('blog_open') && !is_user_logged_in() ) {
        wp_redirect( wp_login_url() ); exit;
    }
}
add_action('parse_request', 'oxide_restrict_access');

    Just toss that code into your theme’s functions.php file or create a simple plugin containing the code and you’re well on your way!
