I just updated Absolute Privacy to version 2.0, so it should be hitting your dashboard soon. It’s been nearly 9 months since my last official update of the plugin. This was a large update that added things like members only capabilities (protect a page and all subpages but allow everything else), shortcodes for profile editing and login forms (which need a lot more documentation still), better user authentication, better settings page, top-to-bottom code rewrite, and more!
For a full write up, see the official plugin page or just download it from WordPress.org
Update: The official version of the plugin is up to 2.0.4 (in under 24 hours of initial release), which fixed a fatal error that occurred on activation, a bug in which settings weren’t being transfered properly from v1.3, and a few other minor issues.

January 8, 201110:27 amHi John, great plugin. I recently upgraded through wp update to version 2. The upgrade didn’t go well and I had to rename the absolute privacy folder to gain access to the admin page. I tried doing a clean install and got an error related to line 49:
require_once( ABSPRIVACY_PATH . ‘/general-functions.php’ );
I had to rename to functions.php to get it to work.
require_once( ABSPRIVACY_PATH . ‘/functions.php’ );

January 16, 20116:03 pmHi John,
I set up a members only area with child pages. Is there a way to hide the child pages from the drop down navigation until a user is logged in?

July 1, 20114:41 pmI am using Gravity Forms for the volunteers to register and the client is wanting to moderate the registration. I installed your plugin but it didn’t moderate the user’s registration. It sent e-mails but the user could immediately log in and the user was not listed in the users to be moderated. Any suggestions?

December 4, 201110:21 amThis seems a great plugin and I am wondering if there will be any release for the multisite WP soon or is it far off. I need something like this urgently on our private multisite install for one of the blogs.
Thanks in advance.
Best regards Carina

January 1, 20126:39 pmHi John. You have potentially saved me so much effort. I have been struggling to find a way to make my new buddypress-enabled site protected for the group of members I have voluntarily created this for (I’m a newbie, not a programmer).
I am using WP3.3 and BP1.5.2 (or which is latest by the time you read this). Do you know if your plug-in is working properly with these installs? I have tried it and my first trial seemed to go well. But I am concerned about going live and new issues cropping up. Maybe you have some comment?
Thanks again!
