WP 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

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 · 91% 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.

   This only infuriates users, and does nothing to prevent copying text from the html directly. Do Not use!

   Muy bueno! Solo hay un detalle que es en celular cuando lo abres en firefox el muestra el alerta solo que por debajo aparece las opciones de ver, descargar, etc. Asi que le das en aceptar puedes usar las opciones que tendria que bloquiar. Mas sacando ese detalle en el resto bloquea bien, espero que en una nueva actualizacion lo arreglen. Saludos y felicitaciones!

   Stay away from this plugin! Is the worst plugin from all wordpress! I download the free version and when i try to create a post… i see a big banner that saids “Sorry, you are not authorized to access this area! Goodbye! Protect your online content with Wp content copy protection pro! Basically they put a code on my theme and now is impossible to delete this banner from all my pages when i try to do a post. I read another a similar issue with this plugin from another person and they say is a “cache issue”…. no is not! I can see the code inserted on my theme, now i need to pay a developer to delete this code from my website because is impossible to find the folder. Please don’t use Wp Content Copy Protection, you will have an automatic promotional banner on your pages if you don’t get the pro version.

   Like all of these types of plugins so far, there are a number of Fairly easy work arounds like with simple developer tools etc. I keep hoping there will be a good, simple solution for basic wordpress sites.
