 * The page I am trying to modify is asking for a password. This page never had 
   a password, yet every time I try to modify, it insists on requiring one. As seen
   here:

 * Hi Andrew,
 * It is not the page asking for a password. It looks like column post_password 
   of the table you are editing is a required field. You cannot save your data if
   that field is empty. That is why you are getting this message. Does that make
   sense?
 * Is this a custom table? Or a WordPress table?
 * Best regards,
    Peter

 * [@peterschulznl](https://wordpress.org/support/users/peterschulznl/) Unfort, 
   I’m not looking to assign a password to this page because it is conflicting with
   something in the page code. It creates a request password field and bright red
   at the bottom of our URL above the footer logo carousel seen here (you wont see
   it because I haven’t modified the page yet) [http://Trellance.com](http://Trellance.com)
 * I will work around to diagnose my need, but overall, wonderful app!

 * Hi Andrew,
 * I have been able to reproduce this issue. When you edit a post in table wp_posts
   and that post contains a empty string in post_password, the plugin tries to write
   a null value instead of an empty string (which it should write). I’ll fix this
   for the next release.
 * Thank your for reporting! And thank you for your compliment! 🙂
 * Best regards,
    Peter
