Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about Bender – Mosaic Image Protection

Bender is a WordPress plugin that protects images from theft: it breaks them into an unreadable mosaic for scrapers and bots, shows visitors a live canvas reconstruction, and serves search engines a signed low-res version with a watermark and IPTC copyright metadata.

It blocks automated scrapers, hotlinking, and right-click "Save image", because the HTML never contains a plain hi-res URL. It cannot prevent a screenshot, because no web technology can — that's why every image is still signed with a watermark and IPTC metadata.

Yes. Product images — featured image, gallery, images inside the description — are protected like any other image on the site, and the product gallery gets specific treatment: its zoom link and its thumbnails point at the protected copy instead of the original file. Two things stay outside the free plugin: the images of product variations, which WooCommerce prints as a JSON block in the page, and the copies of those URLs in the schema.org structured data and in the Store API used by block themes. Bender Pro covers those as well.

No — SEO stays intact and actually improves. The low-res version is a real <img> tag with alt text, indexable by Google Images, with IPTC metadata enabling the "Licensable" badge. CSS and JS together weigh about 4 KB with zero dependencies.

The sharp, watermarked low-res version. There's never a broken image; canvas reconstruction only happens if JavaScript is active.

Yes: align the token validity (24 hours by default) with your page cache duration.

No — only PHP 7.4+ with the GD extension, standard on virtually any WordPress hosting.
