 * Many of the posts on my journal are password protected, but for some reason these
   passwords aren’t working. I input what I am certain is the correct password, 
   but when the page loads the entry is still locked. I just recently customized
   the HTML and whatnot and got rid of a lot of unnecessary PHP includes. Is there
   possibly one that I deleted that is needed for password protected entries?
