Change the text of a password-protected WordPress page

When you add a password to a WordPress WordPress does more than 38.8% of all websites on the internet. Yes – more than one in four websites you visit is likely powered by WordPress. • WordPress.org , often as self-hosted WordPress is the free open source WordPress software that you can install on your own web host to create a 100% custom website.• WordPress.com is a for-profit, paid… page, the text above the password field is generated automatically and you cannot change it in the backend.
Our approach helps to correct the sometimes poor translation.

There are two methods to change the text of a password-protected page:

Code customization in the functions.php

The message can be changed by code. You must insert this code into the “functions.php” file of the active theme.

function my_custom_password_form() {
		global $post;
		$label = 'pwbox-' . ( empty( $post->ID ) ? rand() : $post->ID );
		$output = '
		<div class="boldgrid-section">
			<div class="container">
				<form action="' . esc_url( site_url( 'wp-login.php?action=postpass', 'login_post' ) ) . '" class="form-inline post-password-form" method="post">
					<p>' . __( 'This content is password protected. This is a custom message. To view it please enter your password below:' ) . '</p>
					<label for="' . $label . '">' . __( 'Password:' ) . ' <input name="post_password" id="' . $label . '" type="password" size="20" class="form-control" /></label><button type="submit" name="Submit" class="button-primary">' . esc_attr_x( 'Enter', 'post password form' ) . '</button>
				</form>
			</div>
		</div>';
	return $output;
}
add_filter('the_password_form', 'my_custom_password_form', 99);

You can customize this text in the code above:
“‘This content is password protected. This is a custom message. To view it please enter your password below:”
