wordpress secure specific page with token

Question

Hello I am trying to find a way to allow access to a specific wordpress page to website.

I have read that there are ways to use the htaccess to secure with IP or domain (referer) but that it is not the most secure or reliable.

So I have been looking for a way to use tokens? or any other method?

Thank you for your suggestions.

I am currently using password protect plugin and this plugin does have the option to secure a specific page and works great but I have not been able to set it where it protects: /securedpage and not /securedpage/?lkjsi293ndk:8sjhd

Wordpress has a feature that allow you set up password at specific posts.

Open one of your post. You will see Publish segment at the top right menu.

Click on Visility: Public Edit button. Change visibility to Password Protected from Public and set strong password.

When someone try to reach that post, wordpress going to ask password before show the content.
