# Password protect and update visibility for your Resources and Blogs

As you are adding resources to your uConnect resource library to enhance your career center's offerings, you have multiple visibility options that you can pick from.

To refresh your memory, here are the steps to **add a resource:**

1. Login to the admin dashboard
2. Click on the **'Publish'** tab in the left-hand side menu
3. Hover over Resources and select '**Add New'**

After you are done adding all the relevant information for the Resource or Blog and are ready to publish it, scroll down and click on the square toolbar icon to open up the settings. Then click on "***Status***" in the right side toolbar. You'll then see a ***"Password protected"*** option with a checkbox available where you can enable the password option and then set whatever password you prefer:

Then make sure to click "***Save***" in the top right corner.

You'll also note that your can set your Resources or Blogs to other status too, such as "Private" or "Scheduled." Learn about the different options you have below:

1. **Draft:** Not yet published or visible on the front end; this is a helpful status to use if you're working on a Resource or Blog over time and want to keep adding to it.
2. **Pending:** Waiting for review before publishing; this is a good status to use if you need someone else on the team to review the content before publishing.
3. **Private:** Only visible to admin users.
4. **Scheduled:** You can set a specific date for the Resource or Blog to go live.
5. **Published:** Visible to everyone.
