I recently solved a similar problem for a member
To set a password for an individual projects, follow these steps

1. Add a standard page in Not Linked >> Don't add any content for this page

2. Set up a password & add this code into Page Header

<script>
window.location.href = "https://beaverhero.com";
</script>

Replace beaverhero with individual project url

3. Add this code to Settings > Advanced > Code Injection > Footer

<script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/3.5.1/jquery.min.js"></script>
<script>
$(document).ready(function() {
	// project 1
	$('a.portfolio-hover-item[href="/work/ikigai"]').attr('href','https://beaverhero.com');
	// project 2
	$('a.portfolio-hover-item[href="/work/beams"]').attr('href','https://abc.com');
});
</script>

• Replace /work/ikigai with individual project url
• replace beaverhero, abc.com with standard page (you created in step 1)

Explain

• SS doesn't allow to setup a password for individual projects, so the idea here is
• Click on an individual project in Portfolio Page >> Redirect the user immediately to a standard page A >> Set a password for page A >> If the user types the correct password >> Instantly redirect to the original individual project . If the user mistypes, an error occurs and they need to re-enter the password.

I followed these instructions, but when I click on my portfolio project, it still brings me to the project page and does not redirect to the password protected page. I have additionally tried using the URL mapping section of Squarespace settings to redirect the page, and nothing.

I have tried debugging by redirecting a non-portfolio page to another non-portfolio page, neither of which with passwords, and redirecting does not seem to be working at all. 

I'm quite frustrated. Do you have any other suggestions @tuanphan? Thank you so much, I appreciate it!

And @squarespace, it honestly makes no sense to me why you would have such a prohibitive (lack of a) feature. Please please fix it.
