  How can I create content on my pages that is protected by a username and password such that only members of my group have access? I am creating a webpage for a church and want to create a page my board can access with a username and password.

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

  Hi @zeebest1472.

  You can use page and post visibility options to password protect a page for your board to access with a username and password.

  Open the page/post you want to password protect. In the “Status” box at the top of the right hand sidebar you can use the second dropdown (that likely says “Public” now because that’s the default) to choose “Password Protected.” This will allow you to set the password for that particular page. Changing the visibility on a post works the same way.

  You can see more details, including a video tutorial, on this support page:

  It is important to note also that changing that setting will only affect the page or post that you change it on, and not the rest of the site.
