Mini Mods - Disable right click on your forum.

This script taken from dynamic drive will disable the right click on your forum for guests. As to offer some protection to your materials being stolen from your forum.

Note: This will prevent them only for the right click and copy/paste directly.

Anyway, add the following code to the very begin of the headinclude template.

<vb:if condition="$show['guest']">
<script type="text/javascript">
<!--

//Disable right mouse click Script
//By Maximus (maximus@nsimail.com) w/ mods by DynamicDrive

var message="Right click is disabled for guests!";

///////////////////////////////////
function clickIE4(){
if (event.button==2){
alert(message);
return false;
}
}

function clickNS4(e){
if (document.layers||document.getElementById&&!document.all){
if (e.which==2||e.which==3){
alert(message);
return false;
}
}
}

if (document.layers){
document.captureEvents(Event.MOUSEDOWN);
document.onmousedown=clickNS4;
}
else if (document.all&&!document.getElementById){
document.onmousedown=clickIE4;
}

document.oncontextmenu=new Function("alert(message);return false")

// --> 
</script>
</vb:if>

To change the message shown to guests when attempting to right click at your forum, find the following code:

var message="Right click is disabled for guests!";

And change the text

Right click is disabled for guests!

with your own message.

I am not sure what you are asking. This will disable the ability to use the right click at your forum for all the guests.

I will look into it.

Why bother ?

When the context menu has been disabled like this it can be easily re-enabled by typing javascript:void oncontextmenu(null) into the address bar of the browser.

View source code in nearly every browser.

Opera ignores no right clicks anyhoo.

All you will do is piss people off

You got a point TimberFloorAu. There is no 100% of preventing that but we might as well try to make them work harder

[TimberFloorAu]

LOL

You should do the javascript version. When they right click they get a warning, if they do it again : it will redirect them to a porn site !

Replace the code with this one:

<vb:if condition="is_member_of($bbuserinfo, 1,2,3)">
<script type="text/javascript">

function clickIE4(){
if (event.button==2){
alert(message);
return false;
}
}

function clickNS4(e){
if (document.layers||document.getElementById&&!document.all){
if (e.which==2||e.which==3){
alert(message);
return false;
}
}
}

if (document.layers){
document.captureEvents(Event.MOUSEDOWN);
document.onmousedown=clickNS4;
}
else if (document.all&&!document.getElementById){
document.onmousedown=clickIE4;
}

document.oncontextmenu=new Function("alert(message);return false")

// --> 
</script>
</vb:if>

And change the gids 1,2,3 with your own usergroups ids that you don''t want to use the right click function at your forum.
