Getting Started

Choose the right plan

WP Advanced Content Protector is the best choice to protect content and images on your WordPress sites. There are 3 available plans:

Single plan

You can use WPACP with Single plan for 1 WordPress site. It can be the right choice if you have only 1 site, or if you would like to test what WP Advanced Content Protector can do (you can upgrade your subscription later).

Multi plan

You can use WPACP with Multi plan for up to 5 WordPress sites. If you have at least 3 sites you should choose Multi plan.

Lifetime plan

We created Lifetime plan for freelancers and agencies. Lifetime plan can be used on unlimited sites. We offer a Lifetime plan for a reasonable one-time fee.

Text features

Disable Copy

With the "Disable Copy" mode in WP Advanced Content Protector, trying to copy text from your site won't work. This is true whether someone uses the mouse's right-click, keyboard shortcuts, or the browser's Edit menu. This keeps your content safe and stops others from copying it without permission.

Modify Text

With this mode turned on, users can still copy text from your site, but the plugin will cleverly change it, making the copied version different and not usable. It's a tricky way to let people think they've copied it correctly, while actually protecting your original content.

When someone tries to copy text from your website, a link to the current page gets added to their copied content. This ensures readers always know its original source and can drive traffic back to your site.

Remove Words

Automatically replace specific words when a visitor copies text. You can target your most important keywords so the results become unusable for repurposing.

Inject Words

Insert pre-defined words randomly into the copied text. Because of the injected words, the copied text will become unusable.

Create Typos

Intentionally mix up words and add errors in copied text so the copied version becomes less readable and less likely to be used elsewhere.

Source Protection

The Source Protection feature makes textual content unreadable in the source code, which is then made readable again on the frontend using JavaScript. This is SEO‑friendly, as Googlebot can index content generated by JavaScript.

Text Screenshot Protection

When enabled, WPACP detects attempts to capture textual content and obfuscates it to hinder OCR-based copying.

OCR Protection

When WPACP detects that a user is trying to capture the textual content, it makes it unreadable for OCR (Optical Character Recognition).

Alert on Copy

Show an alert box with a message you set when a visitor tries to copy text, informing them that copying the content is not permitted.

Image Features

Disable Copy

If you enable this option, users won't be able to copy images using right‑click. It also prevents the copying of background images.

Invisible Watermark

If you enable this option, all your images will be watermarked. The watermark is not visible to visitors. However, if someone attempts to save the image, take a screenshot, or locate the image in the source, they will obtain a version with the watermark.

Screenshot Protection

If the invisible watermark is enabled and WPACP detects that a user is attempting to take a screenshot, the invisible watermarks become visible.

Exceptions

Text Feature Exceptions

Minimum Word Count

Allow copying of short texts. This ensures that shorter sections—like an address or brief description—can be copied while still preventing content theft.

Stop Words

Allow copying only when the text contains specific words you've chosen. Control which portions of your content are more freely accessible based on the words within them.

Exclude URLs

Set particular web pages on your site where you permit users to copy text.

Image Feature Exceptions

Minimum Width

Exclude small images and icons from being watermarked by setting a minimum width value.

Excluded Image URLs

Exclude specific images or directories from watermarking by listing their URLs.

Page Exceptions

Exclude entire pages from image protection features when needed.
