Description
EZee Copyright Protector prevents copying and plagiarism of your original or copyrighted content. It works on Mozilla Firefox,
Google Chrome, Microsoft Edge and Opera browsers. It prevents selection, copying, cutting, pasting,
dragging and saving of your content. On trying any of these operations, a modal dialog box is presented to the user.
This dialog can only be dismissed by clicking the cross on the top right of the dialog. The admin can change the title and
text of the copyright notice which appears as a modal popup. This plugin does not claim to support shortcodes from other
plugins in its text editor field.
Thank you Rochana Deb, for the art work!
