  I added a password for my posts and now all of the pages and titles have the word Protected on them. Can this word be taken off? Thanks.

  Examples…
  Protected: Happy Birthday July Babies!
  Protected: “Something” For The Bride: Nail Art by Shannon Rooney
  Protected: OPI and MLB Score a Fields of Fashion Double Play!

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

  Hi there,

  It looks like all of your posts are password protected, not just one of them. In order to remove the password protection you will need to edit each of them and remove it.

  Alternatively, you can use the bulk-edit feature to remove the password protection of all but the one post which you had intended to password protect, but it will require two main steps.

  First, go to the list of all of your posts (Dashboard >> Posts >> All posts). Put a check next to Title to select all your posts and then uncheck the post which you don’t want to unpassword protect. You’ll then need to select Edit from the Bulk Actions drop down and click Apply.

  From the selection of menus which appear, under Status you’ll want to select “Private.” This will over-write the password protection. Click Update.

  Once all of the posts are private, you then repeat the steps above, only instead of selecting “Private” you select “Published.”

  That should do it! Your posts should appear online as usual.
