Whether you're sharing private work with clients or offering premium content to subscribers, password-protected pages provide a unique and secure method to control access. Portfoliobox offers an intuitive feature for creating these pages, ensuring your exclusive content remains confidential and accessible only to those you choose.
Password-Protected Pages
You can set a unique password for each of your pages and share it only with the audience you choose. This feature allows you to share your pages with clients via email while ensuring their privacy and exclusivity. Password-protected pages are excluded from your site's SEO settings and sitemap.txt, making them completely private and exclusive. Although these pages offer the same design flexibility as regular pages, they cannot be duplicated or used to duplicate sections to other pages.
