Password protection– setting more complex rules for access

    Hi all,

    Wondering if this is possible. I have a site that requires two separate password-protected pages, Page A and Page B, each with its own password. No problem, right? WordPress makes this easy.

    Now, let’s say I want to do this: If a user successfully logs in to Page A, I want them to have access to Page B as well without logging in again. However, it can’t work the opposite way– anyone who logs in to Page B should have access to page B only and not page A.

    Is this possible? I’ve looked for plugins but can’t find anything.

    Many thanks in advance!

    I haven’t heard about anyone trying to do this before. Nor have I seen any plugins that have this sort of functionality. I’m not claiming to have seen or read everything, but my initial guess is that you’re looking at having to do some custom coding to accomplish what you’ve described. Perhaps a plugin that allows you to write PHP code in a page’s body would be a good place to start.

    Thanks for the reply. I suspect you’re right… I’ll have to investigate ways to do this outside of/on top of WordPress with PHP.
