How to prevent copying of images from gallery

Post by ve_rao »

Hello,

Is it possible to prevent users of the website copying images in the gallery to their local computer? For example, it there a way to prevent the right mouse click, or perhaps there is some global configuration setting? Thanks for any pointers.

Hi,

this is not possible with the parameters in Phoca Gallery
With the right mouse click, people can download the large thumbnail. You can add a watermark to this thumbnail. (see: https://www.phoca.cz/documents/2-phoca-g ... -watermark)

there has been a large topic about protection and accesible URL's and stuff like that. I haven't read it, and I don't know if you can use it. Here's the link: viewtopic.php?f=1&t=2065

Maybe in the Joomla.org forums or in the Joomla Extensions Directory you can find solutions for blocking the right mouse click in your whole site.
