I added a solution for this to the WordPress forums. It uses the same basic approach as jam (comment #13), but it replaces the message with the post’s excerpt. This also solves the issue raised by jalansutera (comment #1) and it does work on pages (comment #10).

This is a much better solutions, without breaking in to core code:

function change($title)
{
$vardi= array(”Å is raksts ir aizsargÄts ar paroli. Lai to lasÄ«tu, lÅ«dzu ievadiet paroli:”, “Protected with password”);

return str_replace($vardi,’LÅ«dzu, ievadiet paroli, lai Å¡o sadaÄ¼u apskatÄ«tu!’, $title);
}

add_filter(’the_content’,'change’);

if (have_posts()) : ?>

hi, i’m using wordpress 2.3.2 and I can’t seem to find this:

$output = get_the_password_form();
return $output;

Please advise, thanks!

Notice: The instructions above have been tested with WordPress 2.3, and the same method works. The documentation has been updated to reflect this.

Michael: Yes, it will work for pages - I just tested it.

Hi there,

Nice code you got here. Everything above is about having a intro before password in Post.
I was wondering if the same will work for Pages. I would like to have a intro on my page followed by the password box.

I am WP 2.2, so hope you can help.

Thanks

Michael

Everything work except that you reversed the file names.

For WordPress 2.0, open /wp-includes/template-functions-post.php

For WordPress 2.2, open /wp-includes/post-template.php

Again thanks for the hack.

Wesley: I took a look at the files, and the instructions are the same for WordPress 2.2

The only difference is the file you edit - which is listed above.

Thanks, I am looking forward to your instruction for the 2.2

Wesley: Since the template-functions-post.php file does not even exist in WP 2.1, no. I plan to eventually post updated instructions for 2.1 though.

Is this mod work with the current release WP 2.2.1?

thanks

jalansutera: Unfortunately not. I have not done much work with modifications to the feed generation system yet.

Hi.. I like your hack. I have put it on my blog too.

However, the feed of the protected entry shows ” There is no excerpt because this is a protected post”. Do you know how to make the excerpt of the post appears? Do you know how to do it?

Please help…
