Problems password-protecting post

  • I’m having trouble with password protected posts.
    I’ve set up an example one on my journal at
    https://www.solvingnormal.com
    The password is “example” (minus the quotes)
    All it does is seems to refresh the page, without showing the post.
    Does anyone have suggestions? Thanks.

    Try deleting wp-pass.php off of your server (this is a critical step), then download a new copy of WP (also a critical step), and upload wp-pass.php from the new download.
    If that doesn’t work, backup your index.php file and follow the same steps to replace your current index.php with the default index.php from a new WordPress download. If that works, then something’s wrong with your template’s index.php.

    I’ll give that a go. Thanks macmanx for the quick reply. ??

    Tried both things (fresh copies of both from WP)
    It’s my first time trying a password protected post, so it may be that it’s a 1.3 problem, rather than something I’m doing wrong.
    I’ll move this over to the beta forum.

    It could be a 1.3 problem. I’m sticking with v1.2.2 though, so I don’t know.
