 * my problem is that a user is not allowed to password protect posts
    here’s what
   i did, you might spot what i did wrong, but i have no clue
 * I created a category board, which i restricted all access to except for post 
   reader and private post reader
    I created a subscriber user and allowed him to
   be a post editor and category assigner (don’t really know what that is anyway,
   please explain if you have time, i just checked it go give as much rights as 
   possible) only for that one category
 * The I noticed that this user can not password protect posts. What happens is 
   that when i select password protect, the password field does not show up
 * Well, I really don’t know what to do to make this possible again.
 * Thanks in advance!

 * There must have been a javascript error preventing the password input box from
   being displayed. However, I cannot recreate this error.
