Description
The current sentence displayed on password-protected posts is:
This content is password protected. To view it please enter your password below:
I’d like to propose updating this message to:
This content is password-protected. To view it, please enter the password below.
Changes made:
- Grammar and punctuation correction: Added a hyphen in “password-protected” (as it is a compound adjective) and a comma before “please”.
- Clarity: Replaced “your password” with “the password” — since it refers to the password set by the post author, not the user’s own.
- Consistency: Changed the colon at the end to a full stop. The colon is redundant because the form label for the password field already includes one, causing a slightly awkward duplication.
