Some suggestions:
- Check the 'Login required' box on all Pages
- Update your base template to hide any "Sign Up" links
- add ACCOUNTS_APPROVAL_REQUIRED=True to your settings.py
(
https://mezzanine.readthedocs.io/en/latest/configuration.html#accounts-approval-required
)
This means that even of someone does sign up without your knowledge,
you'll have to approve/activate the account manually as admin.
- Add the decorator @login_required to functions in views.py (and use
these in urls.py as an override of the mezzanine defaults).
See
https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/4.1/topics/auth/default/#the-login-required-decorator
This is likely the biggest change, as you'll want to override the
default Mezzanine blog behaviour so that it uses your URLs/views rather
than the default ones.
Hope this helps.

Hey Mezzanine Community,
I have been using Mezzanine CMS happily for my personal website for
many years where I post blogs and such, open to the public.
I want to deploy another site on a subdomain where I can post blogs
much the same but in a private matter, for people invited only. I
basically intend to start with `pip install mezzanine --user` much
like my personal site (but as another Linux user account), where most
details were taken care of for me. I run Mezzanine because it got my
site running quickly!
I just want to configure it so that a login is required to view any
pages or blog posts whatsoever. I can't find much on doing this, and
as far as changing mezzanine goes it is important the solution is the
simplest one possible.
I also want it so user accounts and passwords to access this site are
created by myself and myself only. Any registration features need to
be disabled.
John
