Add the following lines to your WordPress Theme’s template functions.php file (For example, functions.php file for a Theme named “default” would probably reside in the directory wp-content/themes/default/functions.php) or create it as a Plugin by filling the additional Standard Plugin Information:

   <?php
   function password_protected() {
   	if ( !is_user_logged_in() )
   		auth_redirect();
   }
   
   add_action('login_head', 'rsd_link');
   add_action('login_head', 'wlwmanifest_link');
   add_action('template_redirect', 'password_protected');
   add_action('do_feed', 'password_protected');
   ?>
