This plugin adds 2 privacy options in a single install and 3 in a network install. In a network install the network administrators (Super admins) have the option to set the privacy setting for the entire network. When the privacy is set for the entire network, the extra privacy options are not shown on individual site’s Settings -> Privacy.
Features
In a single site WordPress install adds the following privacy options:
<ul>
<li>I would like my site to be visible only to Site subscribers.</li>
<li>I would like my site to be visible only to Site administrators. </li>
</ul>
In a WordPress network activated on an individual site adds the following privacy options:
<ul>
<li>I would like my site to be visible only to Registered network users.</li>
<li>I would like my site to be visible only to Site subscribers.</li>
<li>I would like my site to be visible only to Site administrators. </li>
<li>I would like my site to be visible only to Site contributors (and above)</li>
</ul>
When Network Activated or in the mu-plugins folder in a WordPress network adds the following:
<ul>
<li>A privacy selector in the Network Admin -> Settings page to allow individual site privacy or the 3 above across to network.</li>
</ul>

Network Privacy

Golden oldie that I use on all my staging sites. Although originally developed for Multisite, it works brilliant on standalone sites too, for which I mostly use the plugin.



Every staging site should have this

Adds more privacy options to both single Wordpress sites and WordPress networks.

WordPress removes the Update Services ability (Settings – Writing) when you create a network (aka enables WordPress MU/Multisite). 
Activate this plugin to get it back.
Note: This is only for WordPress setups with a network, aka multiple sites, aka multisites, 
aka WPMU in WordPress 3 and later.
This plugin might work with older WordPress MU sites. I haven’t tested it though. If you do, please 
let me know how it turned out.
