works as expected.
by branhampaul·4 years ago

I downloaded and have been using this plugin, it works fine as expected. This plugin is great for adding source link whenever a user copies text from my website.

Идей по улучшению
by apsheronskworking·6 years ago

Доброго времени суток,
Плагин хороший, мне понравился!
У меня есть несколько идей:
1. Возможность исключать действия плагина для определённой группы пользователей (Администратор, Редактор, …) и/или автора поста.
2. Ограничить на объем скопированного: по символам (50, 100, 200, …), по абзацам (1, 2, 3, …).

P.S. конечно эта идея сложна и принципе бесполезна, но не предложить я не могу 😉
В скопированном тексте плагин добавляет/меняет местами буквы и/или добавляет/меняет местами слова.

希望這個外掛的安全性無虞,因為我發現最近一次更新是五個月前…

It works fine on 5.2+ wordpress
by Cheng(Alex) Peng·6 years ago

It is very helpful and useful!
I have tried two similar plugins!
This one is simple, while another one can let you see what posts or content have been copied. Both plugins are good.

This is perfect?

This plugin easily deserves 5 star rating, works as advertised and better.
