    I have created a new page on our website and used the built-in page visibility settings to require a password for the page however it isn’t asking for a password. It seems that WordPress is recognizing that is is password protected because the page title is prefaced with “Protected:”.

    I have tested it myself after logging out and clearing the cache as well as asking a number of colleagues to test it from their PC’s and phones and it never asks for a password.

    It does however work with the default template which isn’t used at all and has pretty much nothing in it.

    The page I need help with: [log in to see the link]

    Thank you for your reply @shahkarkhan02. I have just checked using the ‘Detect Cache’ plugin and there is not caching plugin installed on my site. Any other ideas? I am totally stumped!
