Title: Post Lock Author: ggwicz Published: अगस्त 4, 2016 Last modified: अगस्त 13, 2016 --- Search plugins ![](https://ps.w.org/post-lock/assets/banner-772x250.png?rev=1468092) This plugin **hasn’t been tested with the latest 3 major releases of WordPress**. It may no longer be maintained or supported and may have compatibility issues when used with more recent versions of WordPress. ![](https://ps.w.org/post-lock/assets/icon-256x256.png?rev=1468092) # Post Lock By [ggwicz](https://profiles.wordpress.org/ggwicz/) [Download](https://downloads.wordpress.org/plugin/post-lock.zip) * [Details](https://mai.wordpress.org/plugins/post-lock/#description) * [Reviews](https://mai.wordpress.org/plugins/post-lock/#reviews) * [Installation](https://mai.wordpress.org/plugins/post-lock/#installation) * [Development](https://mai.wordpress.org/plugins/post-lock/#developers) [Support](https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/post-lock/) ## Description _It’s way too easy to accidentally publish or update a post on WordPress._ https://vimeo.com/178698875 Post Lock prevents accidental updating or publishing of content by requiring a password to do either. * Adds a layer of protection without adding a headache: unlocking a post is a seamless experience and takes a few seconds. * Works on all post types (you can easily exclude or include post types with a plugin filter). * Simple, solid code. * If a post is unlocked, and two beats of the WordPress Heartbeat API happen without action (which is usally 30 seconds, 15 per beat), then the post is re-locked. * Numerous plugin filters make it easy to customize the plugin. ## Screenshots * [[ * The lock icon added by the Post Lock plugin. * [[ * An example of the un-locking process. ## Installation Upload the Post Lock plugin to your blog, activate it, and rejoice. ## Reviews ![](https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/876de709f7787d31c1c0420fa07b1a6e2bc34da94a77d0a00325b9374405b049? s=60&d=retro&r=g) ### 󠀁[This is one of those hidden gems…](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/this-is-one-of-those-hidden-gems/)󠁿 [Robert Reiser](https://profiles.wordpress.org/robertreiser/) जनवरी 6, 2020 I like the idea behind this plugin. Probably most of us have in the past already accidentally published a post. This is a simple, but very effective way to prevent this from happening. To the plugin author: Thank you for making this useful plugin available for free. I would just make sure that the plugin declares compatibility with the most recent WordPress version.
