Add Link to Copied Text

How well this listing is tuned to rank in WordPress.org search, on the factors an owner controls. Not popularity, optimization.

Directory rank vs rivals

wp.org popularity rank over time · higher is better · when a rival's line climbs above yours, they've overtaken you

How often this plugin actually ships. A steady rhythm is the maintenance signal a single "last updated" date can't show.

Share of active installs on each version of this plugin · 99% run the current release. Green is the current release; a big slice on older versions is a user base that has stopped updating.

Refined from the date this plugin crossed into its current band.

No paid tier is visible, so we don't put a figure on revenue or sale value: that would be guessing. The install base is a real asset to an acquirer, just not one public data lets us price. A small install base leaves thin data to model from.

Reviewers say it does exactly what it promises, adding a source link to copied text, and the newer reviews are happy where a couple of older ones complained it broke their theme's spacing or layout.

   I downloaded and have been using this plugin, it works fine as expected. This plugin is great for adding source link whenever a user copies text from my website.

   Доброго времени суток, Плагин хороший, мне понравился! У меня есть несколько идей: 1. Возможность исключать действия плагина для определённой группы пользователей (Администратор, Редактор, …) и/или автора поста. 2. Ограничить на объем скопированного: по символам (50, 100, 200, …), по абзацам (1, 2, 3, …). P.S. конечно эта идея сложна и принципе бесполезна, но не предложить я не могу 😉 В скопированном тексте плагин добавляет/меняет местами буквы и/или добавляет/меняет местами слова.

   這真是太棒了，任何人想要複製我的文章，結果貼上之後卻只看得到我的文章標題與網址。這個外掛能夠保護我的文章不容易被複製，任何人想要得到我的文字，只能憑藉螢幕截圖或者是自己打字。 這是一個能夠避免文章被複製貼上的外掛！ 希望這個外掛的安全性無虞，因為我發現最近一次更新是五個月前…

   It is very helpful and useful! I have tried two similar plugins! This one is simple, while another one can let you see what posts or content have been copied. Both plugins are good.

   This does not work. It adds text at the top of my site instead

   Good idea and wanted to use it, but it changed all the spacing on my template. Not worth the effort to figure out how to fix my template so I reluctantly had to delete this plugin.
