Disable right click?

  • Hiya

    I help run a website for a camera club and one member is particularly worried about people downloading his images.

    Is there a way to disable right click on images only?

    Cheers

    Will it cause any functionality problems if we do disable right click?

    Hello,

    Disabling right click on images wont really do anything to keep people who really want them from opening developer tools of their browser and opening the media files. It’s not an effective way of protecting your images and will just annoy regular site visitors who want to right click to navigate your site.

    I suggest you watermark your images. You can either do that before you upload them or use a plugin that adds watermark features to images. This writeup has some good info:

    Hopefully that’s helpful.
