 * New to word press and I’m trying to help a friend install/configure on his site.
 * He’s looking for a plugin that will allow him to use htaccess login/passwords
   to grant access to certain categories. Basically only show the categories if 
   the user has access.
 * example:
 * Based on 2 generic logins using htaccess.
    Site has 2 different categories.
 * 1 login will show both categories and the other login will only show 1 of the
   categories.
 * Is there something like this out there, or can someone give me some direction
   on what files I should look at modifying.
 * Thanks in advance.

 * Have you tried Role Manager. Straightforward integration and can easily grant
   or deny access to just about anything. Focus on the user and not the log-in during
   searches with the second user’s capability being less than the first. [Role Manager Plugin](http://www.im-web-gefunden.de/wordpress-plugins/role-manager/)
