FAQ
-
Does this plugin completely prevent content theft?
-
No tool can 100% prevent content theft (for example, users can still take screenshots, use OCR tools, or disable Javascript). This plugin acts as a very strong deterrent against casual copying, right-clicking, and basic inspection methods.
-
Will this slow down my website?
-
No. The plugin is extremely lightweight and uses pure Vanilla JavaScript. It will not have any noticeable impact on your site’s performance or loading times.
-
Can I disable protection on certain pages?
-
Yes. You can exclude specific post types or enter specific page/post IDs to exclude them from protection via the plugin’s Advanced Settings tab.
-
Can I still edit my site and use right-click?
-
Yes. You can enable the “Skip Administrators” option in the settings so that all protection is disabled for logged-in administrators.
