page password protection

  • I chose Password protected in the publish section of several pages in my wordpress web site so that they could only be opened if you know the password. It works fine in IE but, when I open up the same page in FireFox or Opera it won’t let me type anything in the form field and the submit button can’t be pressed. The other forms I created work correctly but the password selection in the publish portion of each page doesn’t work. Here is one of the password protected pages: https://emmausforthenations.com/wp/?page_id=488.

    Any suggestions?

  • The theme your using uses a table to position everything. It seems that the height of your logo is causing that table row to get pushed down, over of the input box and submit button making them inaccessible. IE is just terrible at following the rules and is probably rendering it improperly. Quick fix would be to use a logo that is less then 200px in height. Long term, you might consider a different theme, contact the author of the theme, or post a topic on that theme’s repository page to find a solution. I’d really like to provide some better suggestions (and I will play around with the source for a little while longer) but I’m not too familiar with the theme or tables in general. Maybe someone who is will stop by.

    Is there anyway to move the password text down so that it’s lower on the page?

    You could add this to the bottom of your theme’s style.css:

    div.post.post-password-required {
    margin-top: 110px;
}

    That should move it down so it’s below that table row.

    Thanks. That worked perfectly. I really appreciate your help!
