LiveG Posted January 26, 2022 Share Posted January 26, 2022 (edited) Hi How can i disable copy & paste from my forum? Edited January 26, 2022 by livegames.co.il Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Runar Posted January 26, 2022 Share Posted January 26, 2022 Disabling copy and paste is not supported out of the box, and I strongly advice you against doing it by other means. It’s very hostile against your members, and easy to work around. In most cases, all they have to do is disable JavaScript and they can copy and paste as much as they want. If someone wants to copy or paste, they will find a way, no matter how hard you’ve made it for them. But since you asked, there are some solutions here, but note that they may break other functionality in your community. Why do you want to disable it? If you tell us why, maybe we can find other solutions. LiveG 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LiveG Posted January 26, 2022 Author Share Posted January 26, 2022 (edited) I sometimes suffer from copying a genuine contact from my forum to other forums. This solution will work on the mobile as well? Edited January 26, 2022 by livegames.co.il Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, there is no foolproof solution that will work on every device. It will disable copy and paste for some, while others will be able to easily bypass it. What exactly do you mean by "copying a genuine contact"? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Randy Calvert Posted January 26, 2022 Share Posted January 26, 2022 As noted above, disabling copying is very easily bypassed by someone who wants to copy data. They could grab it from the browser developer tools, taking screenshots, or another dozen methods. Anything you do will simply make things more difficult for legitimate users without stopping determined bad actors. LiveG 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Solution Marc Posted January 26, 2022 Solution Share Posted January 26, 2022 Copy/paste disabling isnt something that we have within the software itself. As has already been mentioned above, stopping it entirely from being copied is impossible. If there is enough will there, someone will do so.
