    You can set an individual album password by going to Albums -> (name of the album) and clicking Album password.

    Also, subalbums of password protected albums inherit the protection.

    I must be incredibly dense but when I go into zenphoto and edit an album there is absolutely NO option to set an album password.

    I specifically chose zenphoto for this feature.. I want to protect all but one album on the site.. but the only thing I've been able to find is the option to make the gallery private all together which is not what I want.

    Where is this Albums->Name of Album->Album Password thing I've been hearing about? it doesn't seem to exist.. was it removed? if so .. why? is this possible? or do I need to redo all of the work I've put into it so far?

    PS. I know this is an old thread, but it's very relevant and I saw several posts mentioning how to do it, it just doesn't seem to apply to the latest version.. what am I missing?

    Odd .. as soon as I went into the database and added random text into the "password" field.. the option now shows for every album, though when I click on one of those protected albums it's asking for a username and a password rather than just a password

    The form is hidden normally:

    The username and password depends on the configuration of `printPasswordForm()` function in the theme's `password.php`. By default a user name is required.
    Find in your theme
    `printPasswordForm('', true, false);`
    and change it to
    `printPasswordForm('', false, false);`
