Stop copying in my forum (Can it be done)?
I saw this cool trick on a website and I was wondering if I can do the same to my forum.
The trick is that you cannot copy anything you read... it's like a picture...
See for yourself.

Can we do that???

They use javascript do disable right click. Go to Display > Templates > general > overall_header > and find there
- Code:
<body>
- Code:
<body oncontextmenu="return false;">

"Templates administration
In this page, you can modify templates and change your forum look.
Modified templates are written in green.
(unpublished templates are shown red) To use the default template again, delete your template by clicking on delete.
Only templates of phpbb2 or PunBB versions will be affected."
I'm using "Invision"... help!!

Re: Stop copying in my forum (Can it be done)?
Yes, I have tried that code already..
Please check this website... no right clicks, no left clicks on the written articles... that's what I'm looking for.

Re: Stop copying in my forum (Can it be done)?
I'd be interested to know what you can't copy from that forum Every image and every piece of text is available.
The sad news is you can't stop people copying your stuff. In a forum situation you can limit it, but you still can't stop it.
If it is a major problem you can do copyright searches and go to court if necessary.

True my friend..
On my Google searches (until now) I have found only ways to override those commands... but still nothing on how you can create them..

Re: Stop copying in my forum (Can it be done)?
You could perhaps look at it a little differently? Let people copy your stuff, but get them to accredit you and link back. That way you might get a bit of decent advertising.

Re: Stop copying in my forum (Can it be done)?
The problem is that most of them are banned users, trying to get back at me by copying my stuff and pasting them on other forums and taking the credit.
Re: Stop copying in my forum (Can it be done)?
It's a tricky one I would suggest speaking to these other board administrators to get them to remove your content. Most admins won't want the hassle, so will comply.
http://www.copyscape.com/ is quite helpful for finding the sites that are using them. At the end of the day, though, any measures you put in place won't stop someone copying.
You could maybe put the more sensitive bits of your forum in a members only area, that way the banned users won't be able to easily see these things.
Furthermore, watermarking images, is a good layer of hassle to protect against copying. Although, they can still copy, it's a hassle to remove the watermark, so will put people off.

Thank you coco moco.
I tried it and it changed the forum totally!iJerick wrote:http://www.dynamicdrive.com/dynamicindex9/noright3.htm < They use this script..
Good try though.
The trick I'm looking for is to disable right click AND left click on the forum ONLY on the scripts.
If it disables all the buttons, nobody will be able to go anywhere in the forum...
Tricky huh..??
Re: Stop copying in my forum (Can it be done)?
i did a quick google search for ya
found
hope this helps
** i havent tested it, but it looks like it should do the trick or give you an idea how its done ;-)
found
- Code:
<SCRIPT LANGUAGE="JavaScript1.1">
function disable(mousebutton)
{
var message = "";
function clickIE() {if (document.all) {(message);return false;}}
function clickNS(e) {if
(document.layers||(document.getElementById&&!document.all)) {
if (e.which==2||e.which==3||e.which==1) {(message);return false;}}}
if (document.layers)
{document.captureEvents(Event.MOUSEDOWN);document.onmousedown=clickNS;}
else{document.onmouseup=clickNS;document.onclick=clickIE;document.oncontextmenu=clickIE;}
return true;}
document.onmousedown = disable;
</SCRIPT>
hope this helps

Re: Stop copying in my forum (Can it be done)?
This is more difficult then I thought...
I tried this code, didn't work correctly... but has showed me what I should look for.
The only thing needed here is disabling the left click.. JUST THAT!
But by disabling the left click, you cannot press the buttons of the forum (Portal, home,calendar etc.)..
To do that, I must make a totally new CSS that acknowledges this feature... this is where I don't really know what to do...

Re: Stop copying in my forum (Can it be done)?
i though the "no left click" would give you issues.
not sure if you want to pursue that given as you have seen that once you have a fully functional code that prevents left and right clicks..no one will be able to interact with your forum.
even a separate CSS for guests only that prevents them from left or right clicking would also prevent your active members from logging in

Re: Stop copying in my forum (Can it be done)?
Right clicking disabled made problems for my forum.
The members could'nt copy paste a picture unless the used Ctrl+C & Ctrl+V.
The trick is to disable the left click... If you can't mark the script, you can't copy it.
