Rich commented on the fact that he wanted to know how to passcode a post in WordPress.Â? It’s actually very easy.Â? On the right-hand side of the Write Post page, there is a tab called
“Password-Protect Post”.Â? Under the tab is a box where you can type a password.Â? Just put in whatever you want the password to be and continue writing your post.Â? When you hit “Publish”, the entry appearing on your blog page will have a box where someone needs to type a password to view the entry.

If you don’t want anyone to see the entry at all, there is a “Private” option.Â? Simply go to the right-hand side tabs again and click on “Post Status”.Â? Click the bubble for “Private” and continue writing your post.Â? Hit “Save” (not “Publish”) and it will save whatever you’ve written as a private post that is only viewable to you. It doesn’t even show up on the main page unless you happen to be the person logged in to view it.Â? (It’s kind of like a “friends-only” post on Livejournal — none of the people who aren’t friended can see it.Â? Same thing with a “private” post on LJ.)
