 * Good day.
 * I’m working on a theme for my employer and I’ve run into an odd situation. If
   I password protect a post, navigate to it, input the password and press enter,
   I’m sent to the account authorization page on my account management service. 
   It’s exactly as though I had just logged in, and then get navigated to the wp-
   admin page.
 * This only happens when I have the plugin set to Auto Login-SSO; it’s perfectly
   well behaved otherwise.
 * Any ideas?
