Change the color of the Password Protected Post titles

To change the color of password protected post titles in the admin

In your theme or child theme, enqueue a stylesheet to load in the admin, then add some simple CSS to change the color using the class that is given to password protected posts.

In your theme’s functions.php…

function wpse_admin_styles(){

    wp_enqueue_style(
        'admin_css', 
        get_stylesheet_directory_uri() . '/css/admin-styles.css', array(), filemtime( get_stylesheet_directory() . '/css/admin-styles.css') 
    );

}

add_action('admin_enqueue_scripts', 'wpse_admin_styles');

Create a css directory in your theme, add the admin-styles.css and paste in the following CSS…

.post-password-required .row-title {
    color: red;
}

In your theme or child theme add the following to your CSS files, or add it directly in Appearance > Customize > Additional CSS. It uses a class added to the article tag.

.post-password-required .entry-title {
    color: red;
}
