Thx.
I found that creating a basic plugin was actually easier than creating a child-theme 🙂
I only had to create this one php-file, and put it in my plugins-directory. Then i was able to enable it for my network.

So for now, since I believe this is the appropiate way to ‘hide/show’ private pages, I’ll leave it enabled for all sites in the network.

I’ll have to dig deeper in order to find the right method for enabling private pages to be selectable when creating custom menues 🙂

save this as ‘view_private.php’ in the plugin-directory…

<?php
/**
 * @package View_Private
 * @version 1.0
 */
/*
Plugin Name: View Private
Description: This plugin allows for viewing of private pages in the default page-menu
Version: 1.0
*/

function my_page_menu_args( $args ) {

  if(current_user_can('read_private_pages')) {
    $args['post_status'] = 'publish,private';
  }
	return $args;
}

add_filter( 'wp_page_menu_args', 'my_page_menu_args' );

?>
