Protect your BuddyPress Installation from strangers. Only registered users will be allowed to view the installation and all other users will be redirected to the login page. Users attempting to view blog content via RSS are also authenticated via HTTP Auth.
You can exclude the registration, the homepage and blog pages (e.g. posts, archives and non-buddypress pages) from protection. In combination with the plugin ‘Invitation Code Checker’ your installation stays private but the registration is for users with a special password open.
The plugin includes a German and Hebrew (thanks to gstupp) translation.

This plugin is inspired by the Private Buddypress plugin by Dennis Morhardt. I rewrote it to provide a solution that followed the WordPress coding stndards and the decisions rather than options philosophy. I deploy this on my own multisite environment where I don’t want public profiles, activity or members directories (and where I don’t want site admins changing this).

LH Private BuddyPress

Amazing! Made my group page private with the click of a button.

Worked instantly

Works exactly as expected. I hope this plugin continues to receive compatibility checks/updates for future versions of Wordpress.
