<p>If you publish many password protected posts (or even if you don’t), you may end up using the same password for each one. With this plugin you can define a global password from your ‘Settings -> Global Post Password’ menu, and switch password protection on or off from the writing screen with just one click. Whenever you change the global password, all password protected posts are automatically updated with the new password.</p>
<p>Now whenever you write or edit a post or page you’ll be able to switch password protection on or off with one click, instead of having to manually type in a password each time. You can change the global password whenever you like from the ‘Settings -> Global Post Password’ menu.</p>
<p>Note that this plugin <strong>does not</strong> automatically enable password protection on every post. It allows you to use a global password for every post that you choose to password protect.</p>
<p>Please note that this plugin is <strong>no longer actively maintained</strong>. The global post password setting does not work with the block-based editor in WordPress and it’s unlikely that I’ll add support for it unless someone else volunteers to develop it. It does work with the “Classic” editor and with versions of WordPress prior to 5.0.</p>

<p><strong>Frontend Reset Password</strong> lets your site users reset their lost or forgotten passwords in the frontend of your site. No more default WordPress reset form! Users fill in their username or email address and a reset password link is emailed to them. When they click this link they’ll be redirected to your site and asked for a new password. Everything is handled using default WordPress methods including security, so you don’t have to worry.</p>
<p><strong>Frontend Reset Password</strong> is perfect for sites that have disabled access to the WordPress dashboard, or if you want to include a lost/reset password form on one of your custom site pages. It also works great with <strong>Easy Digital Downloads</strong>!</p>
<p>Any error messages display right on the form, including whether the username or email address is invalid.</p>
<p>The plugin works by hooking into the <code>lostpassword_url</code> WordPress filter, meaning compatibility with other plugins can be better maintained.</p>
<p><strong>Frontend Reset Password</strong> is also translation ready.</p>
<h3>Setup Guide</h3>
<h4>Step 1</h4>
<p>Include our shortcode <code>[reset_password]</code> in any page you want</p>
<h4>Step 2</h4>
<p>Go to the plugin settings page and select which page your shortcode is on.</p>
<h4>Step 3</h4>
<p>Customise! This is optional, the plugin works right out of the box, but you’re able to change the text for the form elements.</p>
<h3>Customisation</h3>
<p>The text in the lost/reset password forms can be customised. Very little CSS styling is used, so the forms should style with your website theme beautifully.</p>
<p>If you use a frontend login page you can set that in the plugin also. Users are told they can login and are shown the url when they successfully change their password.</p>
<p>You can also set the minimum number of characters required for a password. Default is 0.</p>
<h3>Support</h3>
<p>Quick start guide included on the plugin settings page. For anything else post on the wordpress.org support forum.</p>
