    I'm using Minimum Pro and I would like to customize the password protected text on my main portfolio page, as well as the password required page that follows. These are the two pages currently:

    1. http://prayersandapples.com/portfolio/

    2. http://prayersandapples.com/portfolio/how-to-get-happier/

    Instead of "Protected", I would like the text (on both pages) to read "Clients Only". I would also like to be able to add a line of text on the second password page with a hyperlink (i.e., "Not a client? Click here to work with me!")

    Any help would be greatly appreciated! Thanks so much!

    Hi,

    this tutorial from the WordPress codex should help you with that:

    Hi Christoph,

    Thanks so much! Do you know if I should I paste this code into the functions.php of my Minimum Pro theme, or the Genesis functions folder?

    Hi,

    you are welcome.

    You should always make changes in the child theme because changes to the genesis folder will be lost when there is an update for genesis.

    Ok, sounds good - thank you! One last question: The link seems to just refer to the text on the second "enter your password" page. Any suggestions on changing the word "Protected" on the first (and second) pages? (See: http://prayersandapples.com/portfolio/ )?

    Thanks!

    Hi,

    you will have to add another filter for protected_title_format.

    Found this tutorial for you:
