Repository metrics are context, not quality scores. Active installations measure adoption and can strongly reflect a plugin’s age and historical popularity. Ratings, recent updates and “Tested up to” metadata also do not guarantee modern code, error-free operation, security, feature completeness or suitability for a particular site.

WP PlugIndex currently records ACW Custom Messages for Password Protected Pages version 1.1.0 as active, updated 2mo ago and tested up to WordPress 7.1.
Overview
About this plugin
By default, WordPress displays a message such as “This content is password protected. To view it please enter your password below:” on password protected posts and pages.
ACW Custom Messages for Password Protected Pages lets you replace that message with your own text or HTML. You can set a default message for all password protected content, and you can also assign a different custom message to each specific page, post or custom post type from the plugin settings screen.
Features:
Change the default password protected message to any text/HTML, using the visual editor.
Add as many content-specific messages as you like: select a page, post or custom post type item, write its custom message, and add another one for different content.
Content-specific messages override the default message.
The content dropdown only lists password protected items, so it stays short and easy to browse even on large sites.
Optional “wrong password” message: WordPress gives no feedback when a wrong password is entered — enable this message to let visitors know their attempt failed.
Remove the “Protected:” prefix from the title, so “Protected: Page Title” shows as “Page Title”.
Change the “Password” input label to any custom text.
Dedicated settings screen under Settings → Password Messages.
