    I’ve created a password protected page. User puts in their password and the content is displayed fine.

    However, if the user closes their broswer and reopens it and navigates to the password protected page they are let straight in i.e. they don’t have to re-enter the password

    Can anyone tell me what I need to do to stop this happening. I know the broswer is caching, but can I do soemthing on the WordPress end , so each time they visit the page, they have to re-enter the password

    Thanks for any help

    I would imagine that is stored in a cookie that is set on initial log in to post

    Can you tell me what pages this is in and how I can stop it from being stored after the user closes the broswer?

    Many thanks

    Well I’ve chnaged wp-pass.php, changing the value from 10 days!!!!!! to 0 which clears when the broswer is closed

    Seems to do the job, unless anyone tells me otherwise
