Nice plugin, however the Site Admin in the menu of my blog formats incorrectly.
How so, Thomas?
However i removed the extra ” on line 110 in private-suite.php and now it looks good!
Didn’t understand why you added them though. So maybe I broke something else?
Thomas, I think you’re fine. I’m reworking the plugin altogether, and hopefully the new version won’t have that issue.
Hi, i just intalled it and let you know for infos, that at first i’d a conflict with WP-CUMULUS, that, as i’m not using it, i’ve desinstalled to avoid the common message about a “fatal error on line 305″, after that it works!
Cheers
Version 1.0 breaks the theme. Gives me a blank page.
Version 0.9 is still ok.
Jim, got a similar issue.
Seems to be a conflict with other plugins.
Did you look at your webservers errorlog to se what causes the error?
Stephanie, the plugin looks interesting, but it conflicts with Twitter Tools. I get a PHP error in Twitter Tools with Private Suite installed that says that “aktt() widget is being redeclared by Twitter Tools”
Seth, it’s not Twitter Tools, but something is going on with this plugin that’s creating conflicts with everything under the sun. I’m looking into it.
I’ve just posted version 1.01. Let me know if that solves the problems!
Seems okay now – for the MHS site (WP 2.9.1) there’s no longer a conflict with the Events plugin by Arnan de Gans. Many thanks.
Stephanie,
I can confirm that it seems to work fine with Countdown plugin aswell!
Thanks!
Version 1.0.1 fixed my problem. It’s working well now!
Excellent. Thanks for letting me know, everyone!
Just a tip you may want to add in your directions (in case others are WP n00bs like me): You need to set the page visibility AND add the “Private:” tag.
Amanda, I’m not sure what you mean. Setting the visibility on the post/page edit screen is all you have to do in order to limit who sees the page. WordPress automatically adds the “Private:” prefix to those post/page titles, and this plugin allows you to change the wording.
Just updated to Wp 2.9.2 from 2.9.
I am using nl_NL.
The plugin used to work in version 2.9, but not anymore after the update to WP 2.9.2.
I want to remove ‘Private:’ so my setting is blank.
Language issue?
This is maybe a dumb question but how do use the plugin? :s
I make a page private and i set some user to be able the read it in the plugin setting, but the page stays private.
Only I, the admin, can still see it.
Am i doing something wrong or am i forgetting something?
Please help, i can really use this plugin.
It looks promising, but it’s missing a few features that would really round it out… namely that the tag cloud and category listings include private pages if the user has the rights to see them.
I’ve got the same issue as Tom
Maybe I’m missing something really obvious. I have the Private Suite options set so subscribers and above can see them. But even when I do that, any posts set to private status are now only viewable when logged in as admin!
Tried with users that have author and editor roles and they can’t see the posts either!
Is there some other WP setting that is conflicting here?
TIA!
Im using private suite 1.1 on a danish WordPress 3.0.
My issue is:
I have a static page for frontpage and a subpage for my blog. The blogpage and another page has to be visible to logged in users only.
The moment I set the blogpage to private, my frontpage becomes the blog and will no longer accept returning to at static page. AND the blogpage and the other private page becomes visible to not logged in users.
Only deactivating private suite lets me put things back to order. Only the blogpage cannot be set to private.
Kind regards.

I’m running WordPress 3.0.1 and with yout plugin activated I get errors when I update/save a page/post :
Warning: Cannot modify header information – headers already sent by (output started at wp-content/plugins/private-suite/private-suite.php:1) in wp-includes/pluggable.php on line 890
Besides the error, the plugin works fine.
Any ideas?
Hi Stephanie,
first of all thanks for the cool plugin !!
I’ve noticed two things ;).
There is a problem in the fields for “Privates posts” and “Protected posts” with accented. If i use caracter like é it becomes é. This is perhaps a problem with encoding because there are correctly saved in the option table.
If i create a sub-category under a category that i have defined as private it is not checked as private too.
Could you correct and implement that in the future release please ?
TIA.
Amicably,
Pierre.
Thanks for letting me know, Pierre! I will try to correct that in the next version.
