Biggest opportunity: “copyright protection”, “disable right click” and “prevent right click” aren't earning a slot. You list them, but you're not in the first 24 results for those searches. WordPress.org counts only your first five tags, so free the slot for a search you can win.

of downloads still active
At least 10K of 160.6K lifetime downloads are still running, above its category: the median Uncategorized plugin keeps 0.6%, across 17,764 plugins.
Downloads count every update, not just first installs, so older and more frequently released plugins read lower. Compare against other Uncategorized plugins, not across the directory. wp.org reports active installs as the bottom of a band, so the real rate is this or higher.

Recent review vibe
read from the latest 12 reviews to 2024-02-29Most reviewers say it does the job, blocking right clicks and dev tools shortcuts, but others report it not working at all, breaking Ctrl+F and media library images, and there's an unfixed CVE plus repeated asks to edit the popup text from the front end.

How it's tracked →Directory searches this plugin turns up in, and which way each one is moving. WordPress.org publishes no history of search positions, so this starts the day we first tracked a keyword and never backfills.
Not enough tracked days yet to call a direction. Momentum needs at least three keywords measured a week or more apart.
wp.org is where the directory puts the plugin for that search. On merit is where it would sit if results were ranked on rating, support and updates, without the install boost. The last column is how far the wp.org position moved, from our first reading in the last 90 days to the latest.
| Keyword | wp.org | On merit | wp.org move, 90 days |
|---|---|---|---|
| copyright protection your tag | Not in the top 24 | ||
| disable right click your tag | Not in the top 24 | ||
| prevent right click your tag | Not in the top 24 | ||
| stop image saving with right click your tag | Not in the top 24 | ||
| stop right click your tag | Not in the top 24 | ||
2 searches this plugin appeared in over the last 90 days, 0 listed. 2 left out as unrelated or noise (years, numbers, stray words). 5 of its tags aren't in the top 24 for their own search.
What to do about it
- “copyright protection”, “disable right click” and “prevent right click” aren't earning a slot. You list them, but you're not in the first 24 results for those searches. WordPress.org counts only your first five tags, so free the slot for a search you can win.

Read on wp.org ↗ - ★★★★★ nejcox4.7y ago
I like and it works great. shift+ctrl+c is a problem though. And it would be better if message could be modified from front end.
Read on wp.org ↗ - ★★★★★ shiningoven4.8y ago
Everything is working fine, I didn’t find any bug’s. Could improve the plugin with the use (ctrl+shift+c) but otherwise everything is fine
