LinkHopper

Sometimes you want to show your WordPress site to someone before you’re ready to properly launch it.

This plugin creates an "Allowed List" of IP addresses.  If you're not on the list, you see a generic "Coming Soon" page.

The admin panel lets you view your list, and remove IP’s you don’t want. You can work with Tokens, allowing you to send a link which will add the visitor to the allowed list. This lets you show off your new site without launching it. (Or perhaps, show your client that site you’ve been working on)

The IP Allowed List plugin is designed to make life as easy as possible. Generic tokens are set up to begin with, and a generic Coming Soon page is provided. You can work with the defaults straight out of the box. If you’d prefer to tweak, you can do that too.
