Login once for multiple pages with Single Page Protect

The following is from the Web Builder Help :
- If you use the same password for multiple pages then the user does not have to login again for the other page(s) with that same password.

I have multiple pages in my website I like to protect with Single Page Protect. They all use the same password.
It works, but the problem is I have to enter the password for every page I visit, even when I re-open that page. According to the Help that shouldn't be necessary. Entering the password once should be enough to visit the other protected pages.

Is this a typo in the Help, or am I doing something wrong?

The password is stored in a PHP session and checked with every visit to the page.
So, if this does not work then maybe there is an issue with sessions on the server?
This actually happens quite a lot. The solution is usually to reset the session cache on the server.
This is unrelated to the script.
