Every time I password protect a page, when you attempt to login to that page, WP redirects you back to the WP login page. If you navigate back to the original page you were trying to access, it is now accessible.
For example, try this page: http://scliff.com/?page_id=599
the password is 'password'.
This is annoying for my students who use the site everyday to get their homework and solutions. I've seen other posts about it, but not one of them has a valid solution.
Ideas?
Thank you,

Have you tried:
- deactivating all plugins to see if this resolves the problem? If this works, re-activate the plugins one by one until you find the problematic plugin(s).
- switching to the Twenty Ten theme to rule out any theme-specific problems?
- resetting the plugins folder by FTP or phpMyAdmin? Sometimes, an apparently inactive plugin can still cause problems.
- resetting your custom permalinks back to the default setting and deleting/renaming your WordPress .htaccess file? If this works, then review Using_Permalinks before setting a custom permalink structure back up again.
