This plugin is a simple one, but good at what it does. It changes three elements of protected posts to make them more friendly to visitors.

Prefixes:

  • customize prefix for password-protected posts from default “Protected: “
  • customize prefix for private posts from “Private: “

Custom Previews:

  • ability to use the post’s excerpt (if one is saved) when no password is given
  • ability to show custom text for all password-protected posts
  • if no saved excerpt, show the default OR use custom site-wide text

Password Form:

  • change text before the password input box
  • change text of submit button
  • add custom CSS; set class or ID for theme integration

Change Log

0.6 – corrected for WordPress 2.7, which handles protected and private posts differently.
