### 󠀁[Disable Right click for images ONLY](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/disable-right-click-for-images-only/)󠁿

 [amossbacher](https://profiles.wordpress.org/amossbacher/) Seeɗto 12, 2020

I purchased the Pro and I am not happy with it. Reasons: I cannot select images 
ONLY. I cannot select a pop-up window or no pop-up. To bad that the plugin does 
not let us select “disable for images ONLY.” (I know they still can be stolen from
the source! I am well aware of that.) That is a major downgrade for that plugin.
Just disabling for images with or without a pop-up window warning would be great.
I actually do not need a pop-up window either. To combine disabling images with 
text included in the Pro version is a big NO GO. Everybody uses right-click to open
several pages within a website! Sorry about that, but that is how it is for me. 
Cheers Anette PS that plugin will go out of my website when I have found a good 
plugin which lets me select “disable images right-click ONLY”

### 󠀁[Doesn’t work at all anymore with latest update](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/doesnt-work-at-all-anymore-with-latest-update/)󠁿

Unfortunately, this latest update (Feb 2020) has broken the plugin so it no longer
works at all anymore. 🙁 Worked great for over a year, but now that the update has
broken the plugin, you can totally copy paste from the website again. There’s no
longer any dialogue box that appears when you try to copy paste, the right click
button works (even tho it’s supposed to be turned off, and you can definitely copy
paste to your heart’s desire.) I tested the plugin on my website *right before* 
updating the plugin and it worked great, as usual. Then literally the instant I 
updated to the new version, the plugin no longer works. I contacted their customer
support a week ago, but still no response from them …. So now I’ll have to install
another plugin that will do what this one used to do fabulously…. If they can fix
whatever broke, this is usually a good plugin… for now, until I can find another
plugin, I”ve rolled my website back to just before the update (I do backups on my
site every day, so it was easy to revert back) but I’d skip this plugin for now …
at least until they fix whatever got broken with the latest update! 🙂

I don’t know if this task is a big deal but what i miss is the possibility to change
at least the displayed text. Changing the colors is the second thing i miss. But
it is a very useful plugin for a designers showcase like mine: Moderator note: Link
