Password Protection with Shareable Links is a WordPress plugin designed to enhance the security of your content. With Password Protection with Shareable Links, you can protect any post, page, or custom content type with a password. Additionally, the plugin generates encrypted links that provide direct access to your protected content, bypassing the need for manual password entry.
To ensure functionality and security, the plugin disables caching on protected content, making sure the password gate displays correctly and updated content is served as expected.
Key Features: 
– The wp-admin page is not protected and remains accessible for login at all times. 
– Logged-in admins can always view all normal pages without restrictions. 
– Feed access is also restricted, aligning with the intention to prevent unauthorized external access to the site’s content.

Password Protection with Shareable Links


This plugin was a game-changer for our family-only blog! We needed a simple yet secure way to share updates with just parents and grandparents, and it worked perfectly. The ability to create shareable, password-protected links made it easy for non-tech-savvy family members to access without hassle. It’s lightweight, effective, and exactly what we needed. Highly recommended!


Perfect for Private Family Blogs

This plugin allows you to protect your WordPress content with a password and share access to it through encrypted links.

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>
New Features in Version 0.6.0:
<ul>
<li>Image Watermarking: Add text watermarks to your uploaded images with customizable position, opacity, and font size.</li>
<li>Right-Click Protection: Prevent users from right-clicking to download or save your images.</li>
<li>Password Protection: Secure individual media files with passwords. Multiple passwords can be set for each file with custom labels.</li>
<li>Access Logging: Track who accesses your password-protected files with detailed logs including IP address and user agent.</li>
</ul>
Available languages:
<ul>
<li>English</li>
<li>Français</li>
<li>Español</li>
<li>Italian (thanks to Marko97)</li>
</ul>

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.
