 * Has anyone figured out how to actually disable caching on Siteground for this
   cookie, specifically?
 * Cookie Name
    bid_1_password_protected_auth
 * Password Protected does not always work well with sites that use caching.
    If
   your site uses a caching plugin or your web hosting uses server-side caching,
   you may need to configure your caching setup to disable caching for the Password
   Protected cookie:

 * [@connietee](https://wordpress.org/support/users/connietee/) Hi,
 * Hope you are doing good.
 * Did you talk with Siteground about the cache disable issue?
 * Let me test this on my staging sites, I have multiple servers, let me reproduce
   this and if there will be any issues I will fix them and release the updated 
   version of this plugin soon.
 * Thanks

 * Thanks! I have just been disabling the cache manually, yet the browser still 
   keeps the password.
 * And in the “Remember for this many days” field, we added “1”, yet I’ve been going
   back to a new page in a browser and it still holds on to the password.
 * We also changed the password once to test the behaviour, and we were still able
   to access the site contents on our end until a few days after.
 * Is there any place else we could insert some kind of code to delete the cookie
   after, say, 4 hours?

 * At the moment our plugin dont have any features to disable the cache, we are 
   testing this on some our servers which have cache enabled and our plugin is working
   fine, you have to talk to Site Ground about this issue and maybe they can share
   a solution or disable specific cache for you.
 * Thanks
