404s are 200 with this plugin

  • Hi,

    Thanks for the easy-to-install plugin — great work!

    One issue I have:
    The protected WP does response with HTTPCode 200 even if the page doesnt exists, thus should be 404.

    I could think about scenarios where is is fine, but it does harm functionality – i.e. of linkchecker, which do not report 404, if this plugin is enabled.

    Could we have a configuration switch “Password-protect even non-existing pages”?

    Best regards and thanks again for your work!
    Henning
