Hi

Has anyone got any suggestions on a recommended plug in or a way to password protect a page and select content viewed by log in?

My youth organisation site will have two sections that are not for public viewing:

One section only available to members of the organisation who are logged in.

One for PR for us to post press releases on accessed by password. This page is a sub page of our main news.

I have looked but it seems there are only a few plug in that may do this and none work on the latest WP versions.

Any thoughts on the best way to do this please?

Oh I just found this- thank you!!

When you open a Page in Dashboard, on the right hand side you will see:

Visibility: Public

and there are 3 options for the visibility – select the one which suits your purpose:

— Public

— Password protected

— Private

excellent!
