## Description

**Kripanov Anticopia** protects your WordPress content against content theft and
web scraping. When activated, it disables keyboard shortcuts, right-click, copy 
and paste, text selection, image dragging and browser inspection tools on your website.

In addition to the common copy methods, the anti-copy protection also blocks inspection
tools (DevTools), providing a protected site where copyright infringement is made
significantly harder.

#### Features

 * Disable the right-click context menu.
 * Prevent text selection across the whole site.
 * Block copy, cut and paste actions.
 * Block keyboard shortcuts: `Ctrl+C`, `Ctrl+X`, `Ctrl+V`, `Ctrl+A`, `Ctrl+S`.
 * Block browser inspection tools: `F12`, `Ctrl+Shift+I`, `Ctrl+Shift+J`, `Ctrl+
   Shift+C`, `Ctrl+Shift+K`, `Ctrl+U`.
 * Basic detection of DevTools being open.
 * Prevent image dragging and saving.
 * Block printing (`Ctrl+P`) and hide content on print.
 * Customizable notice message shown when a copy attempt is made.
 * Option to exclude administrators from the protection.
 * Full settings panel under **Settings > Anticopia**.

#### Compatibility

Compatible with WordPress 6.9 and PHP 7.4 or greater. Uses the `defer` loading strategy
of `wp_enqueue_script` (available since WP 6.3) to avoid blocking page rendering.

#### Privacy

This plugin does **not** collect, send or store any personal data from your visitors.
All processing happens client-side in the visitor’s browser.

## Installation

 1. Upload the `kripanov-anticopia` folder to the `/wp-content/plugins/` directory,
    or install the plugin from the **Plugins > Add New** menu in WordPress.
 2. Activate the plugin through the **Plugins** menu in WordPress.
 3. Go to **Settings > Anticopia** and adjust the protections you want to apply.
 4. Save your changes.

## FAQ

### Is the anti-copy protection 100% foolproof?

No. No client-side protection is absolute: a technically skilled user can disable
JavaScript or use advanced tools. However, for 99% of visitors and simple scrapers
the protection is very effective and greatly hinders content theft.

### Can administrators be excluded from the protection?

Yes. By default, users with the `manage_options` capability are excluded so they
can continue editing, copying and inspecting the site during their work. This option
can be disabled from the plugin settings.

### Does it affect site performance?

Not noticeably. The script is very lightweight (about 6 KB) and is loaded with the`
defer` strategy so it does not block page rendering.

### Does it work with contact forms and comments?

Yes. The plugin detects `input`, `textarea` fields and elements with `contenteditable
="true"`, allowing users to type, copy and paste inside them normally.

### Does it work on mobile devices?

Yes. Selection, context menu and image dragging protections work on both desktop
and mobile devices.

### Can I customize the notice message?

Yes. From **Settings > Anticopia** you can edit the text shown to the visitor when
they try to copy content.
