Scopika Email & Phone Shield displays your `mailto:` and `tel:` links in encrypted form: the link is only decrypted when the visitor clicks on it. The address or number therefore never appears in plain text in the page source. **Key features** * 4 display modes: custom text, scrambled address, blurred image to reveal, address rendered as an image. * Automatic detection: a valid email address generates a `mailto:` link, otherwise a `tel:` link. * AES-256 encryption with a key unique to each site. * No data collected: no cookies, no IP addresses stored, no external services. * Lightweight: scripts and styles are only loaded on pages that use the shortcode. * Accessible: alternative text on images, reveal button usable with the keyboard. **Usage** Case 1 – Display custom text: ``` [scopika_shield link="contact@example.com"]Contact me by email[/scopika_shield] ``` Case 2 – Display the address or number, scrambled with HTML comments to confuse bots (the least protected mode, as the address remains readable in the source): ``` [scopika_shield link="contact@example.com"] ``` Case 3 – Display a blurred image and a button to reveal the address: ``` [scopika_shield link="contact@example.com" type="flou"] ``` Case 4 – Display the address or number as an image (readable by humans, hard to exploit for bots): ``` [scopika_shield link="+33 6 12 34 56 78" type="image"] ``` The `class` attribute lets you add your own CSS classes to the link: ``` [scopika_shield link="contact@example.com" class="button button-contact"]Write to us[/scopika_shield] ``` ## Screenshots [⌊Plugin different use cases.⌉⌊Plugin different use cases.⌉[ Plugin different use cases. ## Installation 1. From your dashboard, go to Plugins > Add New, search for “Scopika Email & Phone Shield” and click Install. 2. Activate the plugin. 3. Insert the `[scopika_shield]` shortcode in your content (see the Description section). No configuration is required. ## FAQ ### Is the protection foolproof? No. It blocks the vast majority of harvesting bots, which read page source without executing JavaScript. A bot that simulates a real browser and clicks on links will still be able to get the address: the goal is to make harvesting costly. ### Does the plugin collect any data? No. No cookies, IP addresses or personal data are stored. Decryption only checks that the request comes from your own site (Origin or Referer header sent by the browser). ### I use a page cache, is it compatible? Yes. Encrypted links remain valid as long as the site key does not change: it is generated when the plugin is activated and kept afterwards. ### What happens if my hosting does not provide OpenSSL or GD? Without OpenSSL, the address is displayed scrambled (case 2) without a clickable link. Without GD, the image mode (case 4) is replaced by the scrambled display ( case 2). ## Reviews There are no reviews for this plugin. ## Contributors & Developers “Scopika Email & Phone Shield – Anti-Spam Protection” is open source software.
