Cryptex | E-Mail Address Protection vs WP-EMail

NOTE: this plugin is targeted to advanced users and professionals – it requires some configuration tasks and won’t work out-of-the-box! The plugin is used to display Email addresses as an image – 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] – that’s 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 – everything looks like your theme style Retina/HD/High-Dpi Images – best appearance on all devices (2x, 3x or 4x resolution enhancement) Shortcode and/or Autodetection usage! Build-In E-Mail-Address-Autodetection – all addresses on your page are protected automatically (if you want it – you can also just use shortcodes!) Autodetection filters configurable for the_content, the_excerpt, comments, comments_excerpt, text-widget Reversible Address-Autodetection Process – 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 – but you can use images only Suitable for high traffic sites – 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 dot’s within the e-mail-addresses can be automatically replaced by different placeholders, e.g. mail(at)example{dot}org, to match your website’s corporate design. Security Modes Cryptex provides various obfuscation modes for E-Mail-Addresses: Plain Text – only text-transformations are applied – no use of images Single Image – the e-mail-address is expressed as a single image Multipart Image – the e-mail-address is splitted into two images, seperated by the @-sign in plain text Advanced Multipart Image – the craziest one: each part (divided by dot’s and @ sign) is displayed as a seperate image, the dividers as plain text

WP-EMail puts an “Email This Post” link on your posts and pages. A visitor clicking it gets a small form, fills in their name, their friend’s name and address and an optional remark, and the article goes out through wp_mail() — so it uses whatever WordPress itself is set up to send with. Every message is logged, so you can see what was sent, to whom, from which address and whether it arrived. The page title, the subject line, the HTML body, the plain text body and every message the visitor sees are templates you can edit, each with its own list of variables and a button to put the original back. Features An “Email This Post” link built from an HTML template you edit, with the envelope glyph, the wording and the post type as variables A standalone e-mail page or a popup window HTML or plain text messages, with the article whole or cut to a word count Image verification, and a minimum interval between sends, to keep the form off spammers’ lists A sortable, paginated log of every message, with totals and a one-click purge A widget and template tags for the most emailed posts and pages A block on the WP-Stats page, if you have WP-Stats installed Donations I spent most of my free time creating, updating, maintaining and supporting these plugins, if you really love my plugins and could spare me a couple of bucks, I will really appreciate it. If not feel free to use it without any obligations. Usage The plugin works as soon as it is activated. All you have to decide is where the e-mail link appears. On selected posts and pages, type the shortcode into the content: [email_link] This works in both block and classic themes, and puts the link exactly where you want it rather than on everything. On every post and page, call the template tag from your theme instead. In a classic theme, open wp-content/themes/ /index.php — or single.php, page.php, and so on — find: and add this inside the loop, where you want the link to show: Use one or the other, not both, or the link appears twice. If the link is there but clicking it gives a 404, re-save your permalinks under WP-Admin -> Settings -> Permalinks. The plugin registers its /email/ endpoint on activation, but a site with unusual rewrite rules can need the nudge. Everything else is configured under WP-Admin -> E-Mail -> Settings, which has two tabs: Settings for the link, the form and delivery, and Templates for the eight message templates. The log of what has been sent is under WP-Admin -> E-Mail -> Manage E-Mail. Filters Use wp_email_capability to hand a screen to a capability other than the default. The logs screen is gated on manage_email and the settings screen on manage_options: add_filter( 'wp_email_capability', function ( $capability, $context ) { return 'logs' === $context ? 'edit_posts' : $capability; }, 10, 2 ); Use wp_email_form_field_values to pre-fill the form. The plugin uses it itself to fill in a logged-in visitor’s name and address: add_filter( 'wp_email_form_field_values', function ( $values ) { $values['yourremarks'] = 'Thought you would like this.'; return $values; } ); The other three are wp_email_ipaddress (the address a send is attributed to), wp_email_template_redirect (whether the plugin takes over the request for its own endpoints) and wp_email_trust_proxy (whether the usual forwarding headers may be trusted).
