To password-protect your page so that only a select group of people can see it, follow these steps:
When you are ready to publish your page, go to the “Publish” box on the right side of the editor screen and click on the “Edit” link beside “Visibility: Public.”
Click on “password protected” and type in a Password (the one shown below is a sample — and not a very good one!). Then, click “Publish.”
Be sure to communicate to your committee members, department members, etc. what the password is!
