We have added a new “Toggle Basic Auth” option to the account-level Bulk Operations menu. This update eliminates the repetitive workflow of opening individual site settings to manage frontend password protection, allowing you to enable or disable basic authentication across multiple properties simultaneously.
Updates & Navigation
- New Bulk Menu Dropdown Option: You can now select Toggle Basic Auth within the standard Bulk Operations manager alongside tools like plugin refreshes or cache clearing.
- Target Privacy States: The update includes options to globally Enable Basic Authentication to install credential gates, or Disable Basic Authentication to remove them.
- Redundant State Filtering: The engine automatically skips properties that already match your selected target state, optimizing batch execution times.
- Automated Sandbox and Inactive Bypasses: Sandbox environments and inactive site structures are automatically bypassed during the run, logging individual skip reasons directly within your progression history log.
How to Get Started
Log in to MyPressable, navigate to the Tools > Bulk Operations menu in the sidebar, select Toggle Basic Auth, choose your target validation rules, and select your batch to begin.
