I installed 2.5.1 and page passwords are not working. They worked in an earlier version. I tried the fix above and it does just add a ? to the URL. As of today is there any fix available. Seems like this should just work.
I can enter a password in the page form. Then when I access the page I get prompted for the password. After entering the password it just displays the password prompt page again.
My index.php file is in /www and wp is in www/wp
It has the following which is just to handle the wp directory being under the www directory.
#<?php
/* Short and sweet */
define(‘WP_USE_THEMES’, true);
require(‘./wp/wp-blog-header.php’);
?>
There is an .htaccess file in /www that has the #BEGIN WordPress #END WordPress in it.
Any help would be appreciated. thanks larry
