Bypass Links for Global Posts/Pages

Estimated reading: 3 minutes 712 views

With Global Protection enabled in the Password Protected plugin, you can protect all posts and pages on your WordPress site at once using a single password; there is no need to protect each one individually.

The Bypass Link allows selected users to access your globally protected posts and pages without needing a password. It’s a quick and easy way to share protected content with specific people.

How to Access and Enable Bypass Link for Global Posts/Pages:

Before accessing this feature, you must have installed and activated Password Protected Pro. If you’ve already done that, here’s how you can access and enable this functionality:

  • Go to the WordPress admin dashboard.
  • Click on the “Password Protected” plugin from the side menu.
  • Navigate to the Content Protection Section.
  •  In the Post Type Protection section, enable Global protection for Post.
  • Similarly, in the Post Type Protection section, enable global protection for the page.
  • Then, save the change. After that, click on “Manage Passwords” to proceed to the password settings.
  • Enable Password Protection and save the changes to activate the feature.
  • Set the Password: Create a password that users must enter to unlock the protected content on the post or page.
  • Set the Usage Limit: Choose a password Usage Limit. If you wish to allow unlimited uses, leave this field blank.
  • Set Expiry Date: Specify an Expiry Date for the password. The password will automatically expire after the selected date.
  • Manage Password Status: Each password will have a status: ActiveDeactivated, or Expired, clearly indicating which passwords are currently active.
  • Bypass Link: Enable the Bypass Link option to generate an authorized access link, allowing users to access the protected content directly without entering the password.
  • Redirect to, will redirect the user to the selected page within the drop-down.
  • Then, click the Save Password button to apply your changed settings.
  • Then a table will appear showing relevant details, including the generated password and Bypass Link.
  • You must enter the password when you access the Protected Post or Page.
  • To access directly, copy the Bypass Link and paste it into your browser. It will bypass the password protection step.
  • You now have access to all posts and pages protected under the global page/post settings.

Understanding the Protection Levels:

The Password Protected WordPress Plugin Pro offers different levels of protection for your content, including site-wide, global, category, and individual post/page protection. When you have multiple protection levels enabled on your site, it’s essential to understand how they work together.

Password Entry:

If you have more than one protection level configured on your site, such as complete site protection and global post/page protection, users only need to enter the password for the highest protection level.
