Password protection not functioning in Bombax

  • I’m trying to password-protect certain pages in my blog, but the password I enter is not accepted. There’s no error message, the page simply reloads with the password entry field again.

    Here’s an example – https://danshousestudio.com/blog6/client/cristabelle-braden

    Enter the password “Braden”, and see what happens.

    What am I missing? All of the attempts at password-protection are fruitless!

    Using the Bombax theme.

    …OK! Got the web-based wireless router configuration utility running. Let’s see if I can find anything about IPS cache.

    Wasn’t the ISP cache or the browser cache but the Word Press cache that was preventing from working! Works fine now once I tweaked the WP cache settings.

    Glad to hear that you managed to track it down. ??

    Yes – knocking that cache down just makes the thing a lot easier, nit just the password thing. Yay. Thanks, Esmi.

    No problem ??

    I’m experiencing the same problem: i set up a password-protected page but every time i enter the password and press enter it just reloads the password request.

    https://vanasep.ca/stakeholder/
    password: banana

    refreshing the page doesn’t help.

    i am using a custom theme, but i switched to twentyten to test and it wasn’t fixed. deactivated all my plugins without success. cleared the browser’s cache, tried both safari and firefox, tried different passwords, no luck no luck no luck.

    when you talk about your WP cache, are you talking about a plugin? I don’t know where to find cache settings.

    thanks in advance.
