It’s supported, Orsp, https://pellegrinifoundation.org and Canvas claims that eery element in the theme is customizable, but I’ll be darned if I see how to customize this one. Thanks, for your note.

My theme: Canvas

When I look at the page in question edit mode, this is what I see:

This page is dedicated to the behind-the-scenes work of the Foundation. Those entitled to entry may log in here:

[contact-form subject='[Pelle%26#039;s Place’][contact-field label='Name' type='name' required='1'/][contact-field label='Email' type='email' required='1'/][contact-field label='Website' type='url'/][contact-field label='Comment' type='textarea' required='1'/][/contact-form]

When I click on the page in the navigation menu, I still get a 404 error. I must have somehow broken the link within the site while tinkering with getting the log-in box to work. I can erase the offending page and create a new one, but when I do I just get the plain text above and no indication HOW the visitor is supposed to log in.

“If the page is marked private and you are viewing it from the front end, then it will prompt for a password to any user who is not currently logged onto the site.”

I have a page marked private. When I view it from “the front end” (as a non-logged in visitor to the site, right?) I get a 404 error. This happens wether I mark the page as “private” or “password-protected.” The code inserting a comment box appears to be correct.

That did it as far as stage 1: password-protecting the page. But now that it’s password protected I don’t see that promised message making a prospective poster enter a password. As I read the codex item, this should appear on the protected page as published. Am I reading wrong? Does the prospective poster have to log in as an editor/admin/whatnot and then enter the password again? Sorry to be so thick.

There is an arrowlet in the Publish box, but it turns out that I already had the maximum window open; I would send you a tiff if I knew how.

Is there a toggle deeper in the settings menu covering this function?

I did take a series of mini-courses in WP but to the best of my knowledge did not customize this area.
