This plugin allows you to have password protected articles and pages in Pelican. The content is encrypted with AES-256 in Python using PyCryptodome, and decrypted in the browser with Crypto-JS.
Refer to How to use plugins in the Pelican docs.
Pelican 4.5 switched to namespace packages for plugins. Run python setup.py install and Pelican will auto-detect the plugin.
Verify installation by running pelican-plugins. You should see something like:

| pelican.plugins.encrypt_content

In pelicanconf.py file:
ENCRYPT_CONTENT = {
'title_prefix': '[Encrypted]',
'summary': 'This content is encrypted.'
