Copycat Protector for WordPress

Written content is easy to copy and paste, and once it leaves your site there is usually nothing tying it back to you. Copycat Protector for WordPress addresses this by adding your own copyright text to whatever a visitor copies. The notice travels with the text, so anyone who pastes it elsewhere sees where it came from and who owns it.

You can fill the message with details pulled from your site, such as the site title, tagline, website address, page title and page URL. A date and time stamp can record when the text was copied. The plugin works with all WordPress themes and is compatible with Gutenberg, so it fits into most existing sites without changes to your layout or your visitors' experience.

Features

• Customizable copyright strings: Write your own copyright notice and place it before or after the copied text, so ownership is stated clearly each time someone copies from your pages.
• Site title and tagline: Insert your site title and tagline into the appended message, so copied text carries your branding along with the copyright notice.
• Website address and page details: Include the website address, page title and page URL in the notice, which makes it easier to trace copied text back to the exact page.
• Date and time stamping: Add the precise date and time of copying to the message, giving you a record of when the content was taken from your site.
• Works with any WordPress theme: The plugin is compatible with all WordPress themes, so you can add copy notices without changing your current design or theme choice.
• Gutenberg compatibility: Copycat Protector is Gutenberg compliant, which means it fits sites built with the block editor without conflicts.
• Translation ready with RTL support: A POT file is included for translating the plugin into your language, and right-to-left text directions are supported.
• Lightweight and responsive: The plugin is built to be light and responsive, so adding copy protection should not change how your pages behave on different screens.
