WP Folio Team

Hello @mikedc001,

Unfortunately, it is not possible to have the “show password” checkbox to always be ticked. For that, you would typically need to use JavaScript.

Feel free to reach back should you need any further help.

Hi @bluepixeldesign ,

If you set ‘WP_DEBUG_DISPLAY’ to true, you will be able to see the error in more details when publishing the page.

Could you please provide a screenshot or screencast when you encounter the issue for us to take a look?

If you are still unable to locate the debug.log file, could you kindly contact your hosting server’s support for assistance in finding it? Without the debug.log file, we won’t be able to assist you effectively.

Awaiting your reply.

You’re always welcome, @kjf127 .

Should you need any further support, please feel free to contact us.

Hi @bluepixeldesign ,

Thank you for reaching out to us.

It could be conflict somewhere.

Could you help to:

1. Log into your server via SSH or FTP.
2. Edit the wp-config.php file using SSH or your FTP client. Near the bottom of the file, you’ll see the following: define(‘WP_DEBUG’, false);
3. Adjust that line to these three lines:

define( 'WP_DEBUG', true ); 
define( 'WP_DEBUG_DISPLAY', false ); 
define( 'WP_DEBUG_LOG', true );

Then provide a screenshot of the debug.log file please? This file is located in your /wp-content/ directory.

Awaiting your reply.

Hi bernhardrobertscheurer,

It appears that you’re using the PPWP Lite version.

You can view the password on the edit page. However, based on the image you provided, it seems that the Password Protect WordPress tab is hidden for some reason.

Since you’re using Divi, could you temporarily deactivate it and navigate to the edit page to check if you can see the password or not, please? Alternatively, you can try using the original edit instead of using the Divi edit.

>>>all “protected” pages are marked as “public”. shouldn’t they be designated as “private”?

No, it shouldn’t. The protected page will retain the status ‘protected,’ but it will still be marked as ‘public.’

Awaiting your reply.

Hi @kjf127 ,

Are you using the option “Unlock Protected Content without Page Refresh”?

If yes, could you help to disable it and check if it works please?

Awaiting your reply.

Hi @michael_hartl ,

Thank you for reaching out to us.

>>>Is it possible with the free version or only with the payed one?

• It depend on which user role you want to set up. User roles options include:
  • Admin users (by default) (PDA Free version)
  • The file’s author (PDA Free version)
  • Logged-in users (PDA Pro/Paid version)
  • No one (means no person is allowed to access your private files) – (PDA Pro/Paid version)
  • Anyone (means our plugin only blocks search indexing) – (PDA Pro/Paid version)
  • Custom Roles – (PDA Pro/Paid version and PDA AR/PDA Membership extension)

>>>the link to the file would work for all logged in users with the correct role without any password – but all others would get a dialog to put in a password?

• the link to the file would work for all logged in users with the correct role without any password – but all others would get a dialog to put in a password?

Yes, the file will work for logged-in users (correct file permission) without any password.

All others will be redirected to the 404-not-found page or login page or custom page.
