I’ve also tried this version of the plugin with no luck, again it just fails and redirects back to the home page

function doPasswordStuff(){
    if(isset($_POST['homepagepassword'])){
        $pass = $_POST['passwordfield'];
        $q = new WP_Query( array( 'meta_key' => 'password_value', 'meta_value' => $pass));
        if($q->have_posts()){
            while($q->have_posts()){
                $q->the_post();
                wp_redirect(get_permalink());
                die();
            }
        } else {
            // oh dear, there isnt a post with this 'password', put a redirect to a fallback here
            wp_redirect('http://www.google.com');
            die();
        }
        wp_reset_query();
    }
}
add_action('init','doPasswordStuff');
