Title: Password Passthrough Author: KaeruCT Published: Julie 10, 2015 Last modified: Junie 21, 2025 --- Soek deur uitbreidings ![](https://s.w.org/plugins/geopattern-icon/password-passthrough.svg) # Password Passthrough Deur [KaeruCT](https://profiles.wordpress.org/kaeruct/) [Laai Af](https://downloads.wordpress.org/plugin/password-passthrough.zip) * [Besonderhede](https://af.wordpress.org/plugins/password-passthrough/#description) * [Aanbevelings](https://af.wordpress.org/plugins/password-passthrough/#reviews) * [Installation](https://af.wordpress.org/plugins/password-passthrough/#installation) * [Ontwikkeling](https://af.wordpress.org/plugins/password-passthrough/#developers) [Hulp](https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/password-passthrough/) ## Beskrywing This plugin allows passwords for password-protected pages/posts to be passed directly through the URL. The query string parameter that should contain the password is `pw`. For example, if the URL of your post is `http://myblog.com/password-protected-page/` and the password is `PASSWORD`, then just append `?pw=PASSWORD` to it. If the URL already contains a query string (for example, `http://myblog.com/?p=5`), then be sure to append `&pw=PASSWORD` instead. ## Installation In order to install the plugin, please follow these steps: 1. Upload `plugin-name.php` to the `/wp-content/plugins/` directory. 2. Activate the plugin through the ‘Plugins’ menu in WordPress. ## Aanbevelings ![](https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/c18d664a6ba9fe8a61ed148122920a9fd092e9b35e90d6ccb9c06733c1403b38? s=60&d=retro&r=g) ### 󠀁[Still works on WordPress 6.6.2](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/still-works-on-wordpress-6-6-2/)󠁿 [mjayas](https://profiles.wordpress.org/mjayas/) September 18, 2024 Great plugin that does exactly what it says and nothing else. No configuration, just works.
