How To Disable Copy Paste And Right Click
WordPress is the best way to share your thoughts with websites like Blogger. But what if someone copies your content? Your hard-earned work can be stolen in just a few clicks. To protect the content from one-click copy-paste, you can disable right-click and protect website data. Here, we will discuss three ways to disable right-click on WordPress and Blogger website.
First, we will understand how to disable right click in WordPress without using a plugin, and second, with the help of a plugin.
Disable (turn off) copy, paste and right click without using a plugin.
In this method, we need to inject the following JavaScript code into the WordPress theme file. To do this, scroll down to WordPress Dashboard> Appearance> Theme file editor. Select the footer.php file to add the following code to the footer section of the website.
Find the tag in footer.php, then paste the given code just above the closing of the tag.
And in Blogger the following JavaScript code needs to be injected into the theme file. To do this, scroll down to Blogger Dashboard> Theme> Customise> edit HTML>. Then paste the given code just above the closing of the tag.
Add the following code in the footer section of the website
<script type="text/javascript">
jQuery(document).ready(function () {
//Disable cut copy paste
jQuery('body').bind('cut copy paste', function (e) {
e.preventDefault();
});
//Disable mouse right click
jQuery("body").on("contextmenu",function(e){
return false;
});
});
</script>
Save the footer.php file, and clear the cache memory (if any) for loading scripts. This code will prevent right-clicking on every page of your website. So website visitors are not able to perform right-click or copy-paste tasks.
We will also discuss its impact on user experience and best practices. Of course, if we stop right-clicking on our web pages. It will annoy users who want to save content for future reference. And also, some users have the behavior of selecting content with the mouse and reading it. Overall it will impact the search engine optimization of the website.
It will also prevent the content from being copied by the average user. We have added JavaScript code in the footer section to avoid page speed issues.
To avoid changes in future theme updates, you can create a child theme and insert the code.
Disable (turn off) copy, paste and right click with the help of a plugin.
You can also disable right-click with the help of a plugin. For this, install and activate a WordPress plugin named WP Content Copy Protection & No Right Click.
The plugin will disable Ctrl+C, Ctrl+V, Ctrl+Shift+I and Ctrl+U and protect the website from being copied. The plugin warns with a notice that the content is protected when someone right-clicks on your website. This feature is free with the plugin.
Now it’s time to understand the disadvantages of disabling right click. And who should disable right-click?
Disadvantages of disabling right-click, ctrl button, copy-paste
We prioritize the SEO of the website. If you disable the right-click, you are spoiling the user experience, which may lead to high bounce rates, drop in session duration, or pogo-sticking.
And it is not the best practice to prevent someone from copying the content if they want to do so. They can use any alternative method to copy your content.
It means disabling the right-click; you are making you website’s UX suffer. It will indirectly affect the SEO of the website. We will not recommend this method as it hampers the organic reach of the website.
Should you disable the right-click?
Disabling the right-click will keep your content safe from being copied by novices. No one can stop a copycat from copying any content.
A copycat can copy anything from an expert webpage. No plugin or script can stop them. If this method can protect the website content, everyone will use it.
How to protect content from theft.
You can link all the content of your website. So that when someone copies the content from your site, he also copies the links of your website. This will provide a backlink to your website and help Google to analyze that the content is yours.
Suppose someone copies your content and publishes it on his website. Google will crawl, analyze and process it for indexing. Google understands that the content has been scraped in the data process and will never index the scraped content. However, if the content is internally linked with other content available, then that site will also provide a backlink to your website.
There are some other ways to protect the content.
- Display a proper copyright notice.
- Watermark images
- Protect the feed of WordPress website.
The copyright notice allows the user to copy the content for personal use only. And watermark images help you to identify your image. And watermark on images will promote your brand.
Copy and pasting only for important text
If you want to prevent copying and pasting only for specific text on your website while allowing for other content, you can achieve this using JavaScript and CSS. Here is an example implementation:
HTML:
<p>Some text that can be copied and pasted.</p>
<p class="no-copy">This text cannot be copied and pasted.</p>
CSS:
.no-copy {
user-select: none;
-moz-user-select: none;
-webkit-user-select: none;
-ms-user-select: none;
}
JavaScript:
var noCopyElements = document.getElementsByClassName("no-copy");
for (var i = 0; i < noCopyElements.length; i++) {
noCopyElements[i].addEventListener("copy", function(e) {
e.preventDefault();
});
}
In this example, we have two <p> elements. The first paragraph can be copied and pasted normally, while the second paragraph with the no-copy class is the text for which you want to disable copying and pasting.
The CSS sets the user-select property to none for elements with the no-copy class. This property prevents text selection, including copying and pasting.
The JavaScript code adds a copy event listener to each element with the no-copy class. When the user attempts to copy the text, the event listener prevents the default copying behavior using e.preventDefault().
By combining these HTML, CSS, and JavaScript elements, you can selectively disable copying and pasting for specific text on your website while allowing for other content.
