I have no SSL certificate… just regular http access. This issue remains unresolved for me. It doesn’t matter which browser is used, the password function just flat doesn’t work properly.

Please try going to the Waco Zoo menu item. It will prompt you for a password. Enter (without quotes) “animal” and let me know if you can see the resulting page and the photo gallery in it.

If you can then I need to do something about all my browsers or re-install WP. If you cannot, then it may be down to WP alone. If we cannot isolate a specific programming cause then it may be necessary to re-install WP.

I really do appreciate your interest in my issue and your assistance (seriously I do). But it appears that you have not completely read in detail what I have previously posted.

This issue seems to have nothing at all to do with a theme or any plugin. After all, I have disabled every plugin and even changed to the twenty fifteen theme. The results were exactly the same.

What you now see is that I reverted back to the theme I had been using and re-activated the plugins.

This seems to be some problem with the WP installation itself. Everything was running perfectly until the last automatic update.

Yes, of course. Try entering the password I gave you for that menu item… you will STILL only see the page with the password prompt. That is the point.

Sure… Take a look at https://www.imageweavers.net

Since it appears that neither the theme or even the plugins were directly involved, I have reverted back to the original theme and plugins previously used. Remember that everything worked properly using this exact theme and plugin combination. The only change I can even think of is the automatic WP upgrade to 4.5.3.

Pick an item on the menu. Most of them are password-protected. You can try out the item “Personal Test” with the password trythis, which is a new page created just for testing this situation.

Thanks for looking and trying to help!

I am running WP 4.5.3 along with the Weaver Xtreme theme… but read further.

These password protected pages are not at all new. I have had them for some time and the passwords have worked properly under this theme.

For diagnostic purposes, I have individually disabled each plugin and even operated with no plugin whatsoever! Even further, I switched the theme to the standard built-in Twenty Fifteen theme. Still didn’t work.

If I remove the password, the page shows up normally. If I put a password requirement in again (either the original or a new one) it suddenly will not display the age.

I am having the very same problem.

A difference here is that I have methodically disabled every plugin and even switched the theme to the built-in Twenty Fifteen – and no plugins activated. Still no joy.

I edit in IE, but view the site and pages with Firefox so that being logged in doesn’t affect site behavior. Even later. trying to access those pages in IE gives the same result. Non-password pages come up just fine, but all protected pages do not show up. The request for the password simply reappears instead.

I don’t know what version of php I have… I will have to check with my hosting folks. As far as QC is concerned, it is the free version, and I installed it several months ago, and it seemed to work fine.

I have no way to delete and reinstall it… that is my problem. I cannot log into the WordPress admin page at all. I don’t even get the log in… I type in the admin URL and immediately receive the error I showed above.

I am completely blown out of the water. I have ftp access to the files, but that is it. The actual site seems to be running OK.

As mentioned, it is not just the users… I experience the same problem when I log in with their credentials on my own computer. It also happens using any of the browsers I noted earlier.
