Post passwords and custom functions

    Hi,

    I have a page template which displays content on the left and thumbnails on the right. Thumbnails are generated using a custom php function and data extracted from the custom fields.

    When I password protect the post the content is correctly hidden using the_content – please enter password, but I need some code for the thumbnails.

    Something like:

    IF password_protected AND password_entered_correct
    {
    show thumbnails
    }
    else
    {
    please enter password
    }

    Anybody know how to do this? Is there a global for the password which I can compare to post_password?

    I am currently using

    if (empty($post->post_password)) {

    to hide content, but using this it never gets shown.

    Thanks in advance

    Tim

    Having trawled through some of the core files if found this way for testing. Hopefully this will be helpful to somebody else.

    if ( (empty($post->post_password)) || ($_COOKIE['wp-postpass_'.COOKIEHASH] == $post->post_password) )
  {
show thumbnails
}
else
{
please enter password
}
