Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about Right Click Ban – Disable Right Click & Content Copy Protection

Install and activate Right Click Ban, then go to the plugin settings and turn on "Disable Right Click For Visitors." That is all it takes. From that moment, visitors will no longer see the right-click context menu on any page of your site.

No. Search engines like Google, Bing, and others crawl your site's source code directly. They do not interact with your pages the way a human visitor does, so right click protection has zero impact on your search rankings, indexing, or crawl performance.

Yes. Right Click Ban includes an admin control toggle. When enabled, logged-in administrators can browse your site without any restrictions. Protection only applies to your visitors.

Not at all. Right Click Ban uses a few kilobytes of inline JavaScript — no external libraries, no jQuery dependencies for frontend protection, and no additional HTTP requests. Your page load speed stays exactly the same.

Yes. The plugin blocks long-press context menus on touch devices running iOS and Android. You can also enable or disable mobile protection independently if you prefer to only protect desktop visitors.

Let us be honest: no browser-based protection can stop a truly determined and technically skilled person. However, Right Click Ban effectively blocks the methods that 99% of casual copiers use — right-clicking, text selection, Ctrl+C, dragging images, and viewing source. It serves as a strong deterrent for everyday content theft.

Absolutely. Every feature works independently. You can enable just image drag protection without touching right-click blocking, or block only keyboard shortcuts while leaving text selection alone. Mix and match based on your needs.

Go to the Right Click Ban settings, enable "Show Alert Message," and type your custom message in the text field. The plugin will show this message in a modern styled popup whenever a visitor tries a blocked action.

Yes. Simply turn off the "Show Alert Message" option. All blocked actions will be silently cancelled without any notification to the visitor.

The free version blocks Ctrl+C (Copy), Ctrl+U (View Source), and F12 (Developer Tools). The Pro version extends this to 18+ shortcuts including Ctrl+V, Ctrl+A, Ctrl+S, Ctrl+P, Ctrl+Shift+I, and their Mac equivalents.
