    Hi there

    I’m currenty using Angsuman’s Authenticated plugin to password protect a members only blog.

    I’d like to release an members only RSS feed for the blog – I don’t suppose this is possible using WordPress?

    Would I have to do something like specify access to a certain folder by IP addresses?

    Grateful of your help.

    Best wishes

    E

    is it still not possible to password-protect feeds (or at least feed summaries) in WordPress? Is there a way I can disable summaries in the feeds so only the title is visible if the post is password-protected?

    Not sure if this will help with your issue, but I figured out how to completely remove password protected posts from the feeds (if they are password protected, I don’t think they should ever be in the feed).

    Paste this code in your theme’s functions.php:

    function filter_private($content) {
		if(is_feed()) {
			for($i = 0; $i < count($content); $i++) {
				if(strlen($content[$i]->post_password) > 0) {
					array_splice($content, $i, 1);
				}
			}
		}
		return $content;
	}

	add_filter('the_posts', 'filter_private');

    Great – This is real thing –

    One question – – will this disappear if I upgrade – whatever I upgrade – blog or my theme?
