Pelican Encrypt Content

Overview

The Encrypt Pelican Content plugin is a great addition for Pelican users who want to add an extra layer of security to their articles and pages. By implementing AES-256 encryption in Python with PyCryptodome, this plugin ensures that sensitive content is protected and only accessible to those who have the password. This is particularly valuable for those who are sharing privileged information and want to maintain confidentiality while using the Pelican platform.

Installation is straightforward, especially with Pelican's recent transition to namespace packages. It simplifies the process of integrating the plugin into your project. Once installed, you can easily manage encrypted content, making it a user-friendly option for anyone looking to enhance their site’s security.
