disabling the right click menu for attachment.php
 

hi all im trying to add a little irritation for image re-posters on my forum, I know im not going to be able to stop them, but its another step, my issue is I know how to do it, I put the following in headinclude and it worked everywhere but attachments.php, but that's the only place I want it.

any help would be appreciated.

Why would you really want to annoy your users? So they can't right click, then can still do a file save as, after opening the image in a new window... There isn't any html sent with the image itself either.

Thanks for replying @Zachery. I often wondered what the viewpoint was with someone with experience. I tend to think that anyone who wants to copy your content is definitely going to find a way to copy it. So the only people you are frustrating is those that just want to copy and paste for a non-destructive reason.

I know this and stated it, but I just want to add it in a given forum to add a little hoop for them to jump through, we have original content posters that feel we do not do enough to help them with the reposing issue.

If you don't want people sharing content, stop putting it on the internet.

thanks for that gem Zak, nice attitude from a vb member of staff.
makes you wonder why you have so many customers....!

Doing a search of "disable*" in the vb4 mods/titles only gives me this - https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthrea...ght=disable%2A It says it's for guests, but it just has a condition around the code, so just remove that if you want it for all users.

thank you Lynne, I saw that but thought it would be no good because of the guest situation, but it may work

@Ukdlai - I believe @zachery was replying to my comment, not yours. He probably just forgot to quote me so the reference was lost.

Mostly, but its the truth. If you don't want people to repost content outside of your site, stop posting content on your site, and the problem is fixed.

All you do is hurt the real users who like and use your site, to annoy the annoying ones. Annoying 99 users, because 1 is a problem, is not the answer.
