password protection

    The password protection on my website is being bypassed as the password is being reordered after previous visits to the site.

    I’m using ‘password protected’ plugin. The plugin mentions the following at the bottom…

    Caching
    Password Protected does not always work well with sites that use caching.
    If your site uses a caching plugin or your web hosting uses server-side caching, you may need to configure your caching setup to disable caching for the Password Protected cookie:

    Cookie Name
    bid_1_password_protected_auth

    Siteground (the host) can’t help. I’m using Autoptimize and currently have the Cache Enabler plugin deactivated. Can anyone point me in the right direction please? Thanks in advance,

    James

    In the Cache Enabler settings the Cache Exclusions setting is available to allow the cache to be bypassed if certain conditions are met. This includes adding a regular expression to match cookies that should bypass the Cache Enabler cache if present.
