Hi all. In V9, you had the choice of ticking one box to prevent people right clicking the mouse and copying your photos. You could still have pop up windows with larger photos to show. In V10, I can only find the option to copyright one photo at a time, and then it stops the choice of having a pop up window. As I have loads of photos going on the new site I am making, this is not an option for me. I don't want the photos copied, but need them to be able to get enlarged. Even the background photos on different pages are able to be copied. PLEASE PLEASE HELP.

Thank you JJ. So are we to assume that each time we upgrade to the newer versions of X5, that we pay more for getting less?
I have to say, that not to publish anything at all, is like having a race horse without legs. People will not add to basket what they can not see. You can still bookmark a site or page by going up to the favorites and saving it in there. So now I have to go and copyright mark each photo individually, as a custom watermark puts the copyright in places where it can't be read, or in places that distorts the photo.
Anyway, once again bitten by a company that has had my money for two x5 evo's and two x5 updates. Time to start looking for another software I think.
Hello Nic,
Having read your posts I'm struggling to understand in what way you feel version 10 is deficient compared to version 9 - the option to enable global right-click HTML code protection still exists on the 'Expert' tab found in Step 1 General Settings, just as it did in version 9.
Can you expand further on what you mean? As JJ points out there is unfortunately no 100% foolproof way of protecting images published on the internet.
You could perhaps publish low-resolution images with a link to a password-protected area of your site where the equivalent high-resolution images could be enlarged? Would that be a solution in your situation?
Kind regards,
Paul
