This plugin adds optional per-page user name and password protection, implemented using standard HTTP protocol authorization headers, thus triggering the standard user/password dialog of the browser, and making it possible to make the browser store the credentials.
Subpages of a protected page are protected with the same user name and password as their parent.
Protected pages and their subpages do not show up in menus, search results and page lists.
<h4>Usage</h4>
<ol>
<li>When editing a page, locate the section titled “Page Protection” (probably located near the bottom of the right sidebar).</li>
<li>Check the box “Protect page and subpages”, and provide a user name and password combination.</li>
<li>Optionally, check the box “Make page and subpages searchable”, if you want the page and its subpages turn up in search results, but only with their title, not their content.</li>
<li>Save your page.</li>
</ol>

Page Protection

Protect pages and their subpages with user name/password, and keep protected pages from showing up in menus, search results and page lists.

Protect Uploads

The uploads directory is where the files of the WordPress library are stored. Unfortunelty, this directory is not protected. A person who wants to see all your library could list it instantly going to : http://yourwebsite/wp-content/uploads . This plugin will hide the content by adding an index.php file on the root of your uploads directory or by setting an htaccess which will return a 403 error (Forbidden Access).
<ul>
<li>Depending on your server setting, the htaccess option could be disabled.</li>
</ul>
Available languages :

<li>English</li>
<li>Français</li>
<li>Español</li>
<li>Italian (thanks to Marko97)</li>
</ul>

Protect uploads

Do not download. The plugin has been changed not too long ago and it now infects your wordpress installation, and possible spreads itself to other sites if you are on shared hosting.

It's a virus

Protect your uploads directory from people who want to browse it. Avoid browsing of your uploads directory by adding a htaccess or index.php file.
