Password Protect WordPress Page Support

Hi @andyt1980,

Thanks for reaching out to us last night.

Can you please try this CSS?

.ppw-input label { font-size: 0; }
.ppw-input label input { font-size: 16px;  // change it to your website's default font-size }

Please let us know if it works.

Hi @jgolding94,

Thanks for reaching out to us.

I assume you’re using WooCommerce for your online store.

If so, yes it’s possible to achieve exactly what you want with our PPWP Pro and its WooCommerce integration extension.

Here’s how it works:

• Associate the password protected page with a WooCommerce virtual product.
• You can restrict password usage and/or expire the password after a period of time as well.
• Once a customer makes a purchase, they will receive a quick access link or password to access the associating protected page. They won’t be able to access other protected pages.

Hope it makes sense to you.

Let us know if you have any other questions via the comment below or via our email hello(at)preventdirectaccess.com for faster response.

Hi @aaronrobb,

Thanks for reaching out to our support.

Yes, it’s possible to hide the entire menu on a password protected page using the following codes on your theme’s template file:

<?php 
if ( ! post_password_required()) {
    wp_nav_menu(array( 'theme_location' => 'primary', 'menu_id' => 'primary-menu' ));
}
?>

You can also hide all password protected pages on your menu instead of hiding the entire menu.

Please let us know if it works for you.

Hello @beewax47,

Just to follow up, how’s everything going on your side?

Anyway, here’s a tutorial on how to password protect content sections with WPBakery page builder.

Please let us know if it works for you.

Hi @lin482,

Thank you for your feedback.

May we know which features do you want us to include in our Free version?

Compared to other plugins, our Free version does come with a lot more features from unlimited passwords per content, master passwords, form customization to sitewide protection.

By the way, password migration from WordPress to our Free version is necessary as explained in our documentation.

Please let us know if it makes sense to you.

Hi @adamkayce,

First of all, we’re really sorry for any inconvenience caused when using our plugin.

To answer your question, yes, technical-wise we have to migrate your default WordPress passwords to our systems for our protection to work properly.

For example, WordPress only allows you to set 1 password while our plugin allows unlimited passwords per content.

We can’t use 1 password from WordPress data and the rest from ours. That’s why converting passwords is necessary.

For better user experience, we, just like many other popular plugins, will run the migration processes in the background so that you don’t have to do so manually. This benefits almost all non-tech savvy.

The password migration proccess is explained in our documentation.

During the migration process, we have to also remove the default WordPress passwords as there will be a conflict if we don’t.

Imagine a computer can’t run 2 Operating Systems at the same time.

We do show a warning when you are about to deactivate our plugins though.

There could be a solution to migrate passwords back to your WordPress before deactivating our plugin.

However, it will be very complicated to handle in some cases. Let’s say you’ve created 10 new passwords, we wouldn’t be able to know which one was the original passwords.

Hope you understand there are some technical decisions we have to make to simplify our logic as well as preventing potential bugs.

While we haven’t got any negative feedback on the password migration so far, we understand there can’t be the same solution for everyone.

That’s why we’re always here to help.

Please let us know if you have any other questions and concerns in the comment below or simply drop us an email to hello(at)preventdirectaccess.com.

If you allow us to help, I’m convinced you won’t be disappointed, @adamkayce.

Hi @bearlydoug,

To assist you better, do you mind sending the page URL for us to take a look at?

You may want to drop us an email to hello(at)preventdirectaccess.com for faster response and better support from us.

You’re always welcome, @blindcripple.

No, there is no limit to the number of passwords a page can have. You can create as many passwords as you’d like to. Some of our customers create as many as 7,000 passwords per page.

Feel free to ask if you have any other questions.
