Lockaire

Lockaire is a WordPress password protection plugin that lets you create a custom password page instead of relying on the default WordPress password form.

Want to password protect a WordPress page or post while keeping control over its appearance? Lockaire lets you create a dedicated password page, add your password form using a shortcode, and configure which content requires a password.

Whether you want to protect private content, restrict access to a specific page, or create a branded password entry experience, Lockaire gives you a simple way to manage password-protected content from your WordPress dashboard.

Unlike a plain default password form, your custom password page can use your own page layout, text, images, and design.

Why Choose Lockaire?

WordPress includes a built-in password protection feature, but its default password form offers limited control over the surrounding page design.

Lockaire gives you a different approach: create a dedicated page that matches your website’s branding and place the password form wherever you want within that page’s content.

Use Lockaire when you want to:

• Create a branded password entry page.
• Password protect selected WordPress content.
• Design a more personalized password form experience.
• Redirect visitors to protected content after they enter the correct password.
• Keep your password page consistent with the rest of your website.
