Disable Right Click and Content Copy Protection

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

Share of active installs on each version of this plugin · 100% 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.

Most reviewers call it light and effective for stopping right clicks, though one says the name oversells it because text can still be selected and copied.

   To be fair, this plugin should be called “Disable Right Click” and not “Disable Right Click and Content Copy Protection” because it doesn’t protect content from being selected and copied. I was surprised to see that I could still use Ctrl-C to copy and paste after using the mouse to select content. I thought maybe it wasn’t working properly in Firefox, so I tried in Chrome. Same issue. Both are latest versions. The title and description are misleading and waste time of people who rely on them to know what the plugin does. I’d be happy to update my review (or delete it) if you either: -rename the plugin to “Disable Right Click” and remove from the description that it “disables text selection” (because it doesn’t do that as far as I can see in both browsers). OR -add the functionality to prevent text selection because this alone will disable copying OR -add the functionality to prevent Ctrl-C because this alone will disable copying Before I uninstalled it, I didn’t even get to testing whether it prevents Ctrl-Alt-PrtSc copy functionality in the browser (another basic requirement for a plugin to prevent copying of content). I might be wrong but I’m guessing it doesn’t do that either. This topic was modified 6 years ago by ragrant0.

   Very good plug-in to protect your efforts, without the junk code that does not do anything. Seamless integrated and lightweight. Does not allow to save photo’s or text without being offensive to visitors. Thank you! Stop the stealing. Recommended! This topic was modified 6 years, 2 months ago by deger62.
