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
