What are you trying to protect here? The answer to that question will
help someone offer a useful suggestion.
There are all sorts of logins you can use, ranging from simple to
banking-quality, and all sorts of reasons for asking someone to log in.
For example, you might want to have some “members only” material, but
not care if the password is shared by lots of people. Or, you might
want to track the usage by individual members, or only want to show
certain information to certain people, and know when they’ve seen it.
It all depends on what you need.

Thank you for the reply, I am trying to set up a customer catalogue and I only need to give a password to a customer to login and see there products on line. Is there an easy way of doing this.

As long as there’s only the one catalog, and you don’t mind everyone
sharing the same login credentials, the simplest way to do this is to
put all of the pages of your catalog in a single folder on your
server (easy to do if your entire site is in Freeway – just create a
folder using the Site pane, then drag all of your catalog pages into
it), and then use your hosting provider’s control panel to add a
password to that folder. If your hosting provider doesn’t allow you
to do this directly, then you can usually file a support ticket and
ask the support people to do it for you. It takes moments to do.
You can also use the Freeway Pro Action “Password Protected Folder”
to do something less secure, but easier. This relies on “security
through obscurity” and is no substitute for basic authentication
(what your host can do). You name the folder whatever you want the
password to be, something hard to guess, and apply the Action to your
“login” page. When the person enters a password, they are redirected
to whatever password they entered as if it was a folder name. Like I
said, it’s not secure at all, but in some cases it is enough.
