Cryptex | E-Mail Address Protection
NOTE: this plugin is targeted to advanced users and professionals β it requires some configuration tasks and wonβt work out-of-the-box!
The plugin is used to display Email addresses as an image β automatically.
This will stop harvesters and crawlers from gathering sensitive data from your website.
It works with emails, telephone numbers, postal addresses or any other text-content.
Just wrap your E-Mail-Address into a shortcode like [email][email protected][/email] β thatβs it.
Or use the Autodetect filter to transform every E-Mail-Address on your page automatically into an image!
Plugin Features
- Protects Email Adresses, Telephone Numbers or any other content
- Fully customizable appearance: you can configure font-family, font-size and font-color β everything looks like your theme style
- Retina/HD/High-Dpi Images β best appearance on all devices (2x, 3x or 4x resolution enhancement)
- Shortcode and/or Autodetection usage!
- Build-In E-Mail-Address-Autodetection β all addresses on your page are protected automatically (if you want it β you can also just use shortcodes!)
- Autodetection filters configurable for the_content, the_excerpt, comments, comments_excerpt, text-widget
- Reversible Address-Autodetection Process β your content is modified as long as the plugin is activated
- Postal-addresses, telephone-numbers, names and other sensitive information`s can be protected too
- Protects E-Mail hyperlinks (mailto) by using javascript based key-shifting encryption/decryption with dynamic keys β but you can use images only
- Suitable for high traffic sites β automated caching of dynamic generated images and CSS
- Automatic font-search (standard system font-paths)
- Supports the new modern UI style of WordPress 3.8
- Native support for Enlighter Syntax Highlighter to display E-Mail Addresses within highlighted content (requires Enlighter v2.7)
- Includes the Liberation(tm) Fonts package
- TrueType as well as OpenType Fonts are supported
Text-Transformations
The @-sign as well as dotβs within the e-mail-addresses can be automatically replaced by different placeholders, e.g. mail(at)example{dot}org, to match your websiteβs corporate design.
Security Modes
Cryptex provides various obfuscation modes for E-Mail-Addresses:
- Plain Text β only text-transformations are applied β no use of images
- Single Image β the e-mail-address is expressed as a single image
- Multipart Image β the e-mail-address is splitted into two images, seperated by the @-sign in plain text
- Advanced Multipart Image β the craziest one: each part (divided by dotβs and @ sign) is displayed as a seperate image, the dividers as plain text
