A share link can now carry a password, as a second factor against the link being forwarded or leaking.
- Whoever opens it is asked for the password before the file is served.
- A correct answer is remembered in a signed cookie for an hour — at most until the link itself expires — so a video keeps seeking and a gallery keeps loading without asking again.
- Only a hash of the password is stored. After 20 wrong attempts the link stops accepting passwords for good; the issuer can always create a new link.
- Optional, and set when the link is created — on the Share links tab, in the bulk action, or with
wp medifence share --password=....
