Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about CryptX

CryptX uses various methods to hide email addresses from spambots while keeping them functional for visitors. Methods include JavaScript encryption, Unicode conversion, and replacing emails with images or custom text.

CryptX is designed to be lightweight and only loads JavaScript when needed. The performance impact is minimal.

Not directly; currently, specific email addresses cannot be excluded. It is possible to add individual posts/pages to the exclusion list using their ID. These pages/posts will then not be processed by CryptX.

CryptX primarily works with email addresses displayed in content. It doesn't interfere with contact forms or other form functionality.

Yes, you can enable the meta box feature to control encryption on individual posts and pages. For more information, visit the Plugin Homepage
