How to lock Notion page with password

If you want to lock your website or Notion page, simply go to the website's "Pages" section, select the page that you want to add a password, and then simply type the password.

Here's a quick rundown of the steps:

1. Go to your website's dashboard and select a website
2. Hit the "Pages" section on the left side's menu
3. Select a page (or the whole website)

5. Check "Password-protect this page"
6. Type your password
