Multiple Post Passwords

Description

This is a simple Plugin that lets you set multiple passwords for your password protected posts and pages.

On posts/pages with password protection it will show an extra Metabox with a field to input additional passwords, one in each line.

Note that if you just changed a post/page to password protection you have to save once so that the extra field appears.

Expire passwords

You can also make passwords expire after x hours when being used. You can find the settings under Settings -> Multiple Post Passwords.

Note that the actual deletion of the passwords is triggered by a cronjob which is run every 30 minutes. So even if you set your expiry time to very short, it may still take 30 minutes until the password really expires.

Also note that the expiration only works for the additional passwords, not for the standard WordPress page/post password.

Using lots of passwords on one page

If you are using lots of passwords on one page and the password check takes a long time, you should activate the alternative password check in the settings to speed up the password check.

  2. Activate the plugin through the ‘Plugins’ menu in WordPress

  5. Set as many passwords as you wish, one in a line

FAQ

I cannot see where I can enter the additional passwords

First set one password (as you normally would in WordPress), then save once and you´ll see the extra field where you can add the passwords.

In Gutenberg Editor you have to save and then completely reload the admin page.

We decided to not show the extra metabox if there is no password set so it does not clutter the interface.

Where are the plugin settings

You can find the settings under Settings -> Multiple Post Passwords.

Does this support custom post types

Yes, this was implemented in Version 1.0.2

What about feature X

Just go to the support forums and kindly ask for it, then we´ll see what we can do. Thank you!

This looks a great plugin. I would like to use email address as the password for visitors, which means I need to use around 500 passwords. Will the system support this number and will it become very slow?

Super Plugin, mit dem man einfach mehrere PW für eine Seite oder einen Beitrag erstellen kann. Aktuell muss man die Seite neu laden, damit die Funktion sichtbar wird. Ich hatte damit ein paar Probleme und Andreas hat mir schnell und kompetent weitergeholfen, vielen Dank dafür!
