 * Hi all, i keep running into problems locating code to edit pages with firebug.
   I am trying to change or add to the text that reads
 * “This post is password protected. To view it please enter your password below”
 * On this [page](http://festivalnet.rollingsixes.com/directory/festival-contacts/)
 * I look in the [http://festivalnet.rollingsixes.com/directory/wp-pass.php](http://festivalnet.rollingsixes.com/directory/wp-pass.php)
   that firebug indicates the code location but i can never find it….?
 * This happens to me quite alot and im wondering if im not using the firebug correctly…?
 * Any help greatly appreciated

 * Why are you looking in wp-pass.php? And the page you linked to above is missing(
   404).

 * Sorry i was playing around with the site and deleted the page to be a bit more
   clear i would like to edit on [this page](http://festivalnet.rollingsixes.com/directory/enteetainment-ltd/)
   the “There is no excerpt because this is a protected post.” and below that on
   the same page “This post is password protected. To view it please enter your 
   password below:”
 * when i highlight the text in firebug i thought it indicated the code was in the
   wp-pass.php…….

 * You don’t want to start editing core WP files unless you really, **really**, 
   know what you’re doing and are prepared to re-do it every time you upgrade WordPress.
   You might be better off looking for a plugin that will allow you to customise/
   style this text.

 * Thanks for looking and i definetley dont know what im really really doing….But
   surely that text has to be in a file somewhere…..?
 * What sort of plugin would allow me to edit the text, im not sure what to even
   search for.
