Password protecting pages

[osehgol]

Hi - me again, thanks for your help earlier on full background images (#99).

I'm trying to password protect a page on my website (go to page prompted for username/password or just password). My site is not using GitHub pages, it's setup using Digital Ocean and Git, webserve nginx).

My Question - Is there any way to do that please, using this theme?

I have tried a couple of things (however silly :$) -
(i) Creating a config.ru file with settings here and trying to call it in the (_layouts/page)

(ii) Adding .htaccess/.htpasswd file in the page folder

Thanks a lot :)

Since you're using nginx, your best bet is to setup Basic Auth on nginx. See this guide by DO.
