Password Protected Pages

WordPress by default allows for enabling a password protected page. Whether you want to create a new page or adjust an existing page, the process is the same.

• Go to the WordPress dashboard
• Click on Pages
• Click the Quick Edit link for the page you would like to adjust
• Enter a Password in the Password field
• Click the Update button

You can also find this information on the Edit Page screen.

• Click on the Edit link or the page title from the Pages screen
• On the right side bar there will be a section for “Status & Visibility”
• If the page is not currently protected it will say “Public” next to Visibility, otherwise it will say “Password Protected”
• Click directly on “Public” and choose “Password Protected” and enter the desired Password in the field
• If it is already “Password Protected” you can click on this link to view or update the existing password
• Click Update at the top to save any changes
