    Ive set up various password protected pages which works fine but the problem is that when I click the home link Ive created you can go back into the protected page using the page link but it doesn’t ask for the password again also you can just use the nav arrows in the browser and go forward back into the protected page.
    What I would like is when the user exits the protected page the password has to be re-entered when they go back into it

    The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

    Hi there,

    When you visit and password-protected page and enter the password, your web browser saves that information. That’s why you can still visit the page even after you leave it and come back.

    If you’re using a shared or public computer and you don’t want anyone else to see that page after you visit it, you can clear your browser’s cookies when you’re done. That way, the next time the page is opened it will ask for the password again.
