    Hey there, do you want to make the site private so that only invited, logged-in members can visit? If so, here’s how to go about that:

    First, set the site to private.
    Then, invite viewers as you’d like.

    Anyone who visits your site while logged out will just see a form asking them to log in or request access. Will that work for you?

    You can also set up a site that has a members-only area, if you prefer. If that’s what you have in mind, let us know and we can point you to the right steps for that. Cheers!
