FAQ
-
Does this plugin affect website performance?
-
No, the plugin is lightweight and optimized for performance. It only loads on the frontend when needed.
-
Can I disable protection for specific pages?
-
Yes! You can exclude pages by entering their IDs in the settings, or use the per-post meta box to disable protection on individual posts.
-
Will this work for logged-in users?
-
You can configure this in the settings. By default, protection is disabled for logged-in users to improve their browsing experience.
-
Does this protect images?
-
Yes! The plugin includes comprehensive image protection that prevents dragging, right-clicking, and downloading images.
-
Can users still copy content with screen capture software?
-
IMPORTANT: JavaScript-based protection cannot fully prevent OS-level or browser extension screenshot tools. These tools operate outside the browser’s JavaScript environment and can capture screens directly from the operating system.
However, this plugin provides multiple layers of protection:
– Blocks Print Screen keyboard shortcut
– Detects screenshot tool usage patterns
– Hides content when suspicious activity is detected
– Blocks canvas/image data extraction
– Prevents print dialog
– Shows alerts when protection is triggeredWhile not 100% bulletproof against all third-party screenshot tools, it makes capturing content significantly more difficult and frustrating.
-
Does this work with page builders?
-
Yes! The plugin is compatible with all major page builders including Elementor, Beaver Builder, Gutenberg blocks, and more.
-
Will this interfere with my theme?
-
The plugin is designed to work seamlessly with all WordPress themes without causing conflicts.
