Is it possible to only put a password on a specific section of a Webflow page, rather than the entire page?
Yes, it is possible to put a password on a specific section of a Webflow page instead of the entire page. This can be achieved by using the native features of Webflow and a little bit of custom code. Here's a step-by-step guide on how to implement this:
Create a new div block: First, create a new div block that will serve as the container for the section you want to password protect. You can add any content you want within this div block.
Set up the password protection: Go to the settings panel on the right-hand side and select the div block that you want to password protect. Scroll down to the 'Security & Passwords' section and click on 'Password Protect This Page'.
Configure the password: In the window that appears, you can enter the password you want to use. It's recommended to use a strong and unique password. You can also customize the error message that will be shown if the user enters the wrong password.
Add custom code: By default, Webflow will password protect the entire page. To change this behavior and restrict the password protection to the specific section only, you'll need to add some custom code.
Open the page settings: On the page where you added the password protection, click on the 'Pages' icon on the left-hand side of the designer. Select the specific page you want to modify.
Add the custom code: In the page settings panel, scroll down to the 'Custom Code' section and click on 'Head Code'. Here, you can add the following custom code:
<script> window.addEventListener('DOMContentLoaded', (event) => { const passwordForm = document.querySelector('.w-password-page-form'); passwordForm.addEventListener('submit', (event) => { event.preventDefault(); // Prevents the default form submission const passwordInput = document.querySelector('.w-password-page-form input[type=password]'); const enteredPassword = passwordInput.value; if (enteredPassword === 'YOUR_PASSWORD') { // Replace 'YOUR_PASSWORD' with the actual password you set in step 3 passwordForm.submit(); // Submits the form if the correct password is entered } else { alert('Wrong password!'); // Displays an error message if the incorrect password is entered } }); });</script>
Make sure to replace 'YOUR_PASSWORD' with the actual password you set in step 3.
- Save and publish: After adding the custom code, click on the 'Publish' button in the top-right corner to save and publish your changes.
Now, when someone visits the page, they will need to enter the password to access the specific section you protected. If they enter the correct password, they will be able to view the content in the div block. If they enter the wrong password, they will see an error message and won't be able to access the section.
This method allows you to selectively password protect specific sections of a Webflow page, providing better control over the content you want to restrict.
