Is it possible to privately publish GitHub Pages sites as individuals?

Body

I would like to publish GitHub Pages sites privately, but I'm not sure whether it's possible as individuals.

According to this document page, organizations that use GitHub Enterprise Cloud can publish sites privately. I would like to do the same thing with individual private repositories. What I want to do is that only people who have access to the private repository can visit the private GitHub Pages sites.

Thank you!

Sorry, but in my cognition, the answer is no.
GitHub Pages are different from the repository, GitHub Pages don't identify GitHub users, they are visible to everyone

I can give you a suggestion, write a password script for your website, and only enter a password can access the website

[noraworld]

Thank you for your reply.

Are you saying that you suggest I write a JavaScript code that requires a password and prohibits others from accessing the sites? Even if so, I think it's impossible to restrict the sites' resources because HTML would be provided when others access the sites.

I have a code that may help you:

function getHashCode(str,caseSensitive){ //Get text's hash code
    if(!caseSensitive){
        str = str.toLowerCase();
    }
    var hash  =   1315423911,i,ch;
    for (i = str.length - 1; i >= 0; i--) {
        ch = str.charCodeAt(i);
        hash ^= ((hash << 5) + ch + (hash >> 2));
    }
    return  (hash & 0x7FFFFFFF);
  }
  function password()
  {
    var sword;
    var logTimes = 0;
  while(sword!="1713842097" && logTimes!=3) //1713842097 is the hash code of the password, 3 is the number of attempts
    {
      sword=prompt("Please input the password");
      if (sword==null)
      {location.href='about:blank';}
      sword=getHashCode(sword);
      console.log("input password hash: " + sword);
      if (sword!="1713842097")
      {alert("Password wrong");}
      logTimes++;
      console.log("Try times: " + logTimes);
    }
    if (logTimes>=3)
    {alert("Attempted many times, locked");location.href='about:blank';}
    else{alert("Logged in");document.title = 'My page';}
  }
  password();

I wrote this program for a secret database website, and now it's not used anymore. You can have this code!

[WillamSun]

I tried to bypass this program, but I failed. You can write a more powerful program to block the SQL injection base on this program if you like.

@noraworld The feature you are after is not available to individuals. If you are trying to protect any sensitive information, please do not use client side code (e.g. JavaScript) like suggested above. This is not providing you any security.

[WillamSun]

Actually yes, it's just a simple password javascript, while your repo is public, anyone could visit GitHub to see your website code.
If you want absolute security, I suggest you not use GitHub pages.
