Hi Rick. To password protect a file, you need to use the Download Monitor plugin. When you upload the file, tick member only file. When you’re done insert it onto the page. Only logged in users can view it. More info here – http://www.creative-web-ideas.com/index.php/2009/05/downloads-plugin-member-only-files/

Hello, I tried doing exactly as your tutorial asked and when completed, the entire page was password protected. I have a pdf that i would like to protect and leave the blurb visible to all. Is there a way to do that? Thanks!

I was wondering if there’s a way to assign multiple passwords to one page – Basically, I have a program running for certain visitors, their first purchase is entitled to 15% off, so I made a new cart system for those products, but I only want the people who I approve to have access to it and I’d like to make it so that they can only get in there once for their purchase and won’t be able to purchase again at the discounted price. I’d like for each user to have their own password. Ideally, I would like this password to be good for only one visit….is this possible?

Hi Bob,
The WP Membership Plugin should allow you to do all that – http://smartmediapro.com/products-and-services/

Hello Jo,

Do you know of a WordPress plugin that allows me to password-protect my posts for multiple users? In this scenario, one user would have a password to give them access to certain posts, while another user has a different password to see a different set of posts. Is this even possible?

Many thanks!

/Bob

Hi Rob. To protect only part of your post (and more), purchase the WP Member plugin. Once you are on the Smart Media Pro wesite, you need to click on Software, then on Wordpress Membership Plugin at the top of the page. Let me know how you go.

Your post makes it sound like you put your more tag in the place where you want the password protection to begin.

this is not the case. At least not with 2.7.1

the entire post is protected.

I’m still looking for a way to partially protect a post. I want part to be available to all readers and then part protected.

Hi Lyn,
Thanks for bringing this up. The latest versions of WordPress have the password box in a different spot.
You need to expand the visibility section inside the Publish box (top right of your post). When you select Password Protected, you will be able to enter a password.
I have added a screenshot to the above article to show this.

I don’t seem to have a “password protect this post” box anywhere on the write a post page.

Do I need a plugin?
