How to hide website from being public or make not viewable by url search

[ad_1]

I have a WP.org website I either want to password protect (fully every single page) or make coming soon. Based on Google it should be in settings> general or hosting> settings when in wp admin panel, but I don’t have either of these options.

How can I hide the website so nobody can access or see the pages when looking it up or anything, I want it fully hidden but can’t find a way to?

  1. In the settings you can also tell it not to show in Google search but I don’t remember where it’s at but that doesn’t stop someone from directly going to it

  2. u/Humphrisanal-Bogart if you’re comfortable editing the .htaccess file, add the following at the top

    require ip <your ip address>

    Enter your actual IP address and don’t use the < > so it looks like

    require ip 123.456.78.90
