Kitty Posted June 17, 2007 Share Posted June 17, 2007 Hello guys! I'm making Wordpress themes and put a link back to my site in the footer.php and now I see people using my themes with removed copyright. What I'm trying to do is encrypt my footer.php so that people won't be able to see the codes and remove them. Something like: kljdlksjaiowuquwoiueoiqwu Someone recommended me to use base64_encode, but I'm not very good at PHP, so I don't understand how to use it. Simply I don't want people to be able to edit the code and if they remove the code completely they receive a php error or a messed layout or something like that. Maybe there's an encryptor I can use? Any help would be greatly appreciated! Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Caesar Posted June 17, 2007 Share Posted June 17, 2007 base_64_encode ain't the answer. Easy to reverse. If you develop scripts often...SourceGuardian/Zend Guardian. But then, if they really wanted to, they don't need to see the code to steal a layout. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kitty Posted June 18, 2007 Author Share Posted June 18, 2007 Thanks! I tried SourceGuardian, but I got this error: footer.php is protected by SourceGuardian and requires the SourceGuardian loader ixed.4.4ev.lin. The SourceGuardian loader has not been installed, or is not installed correctly. Please find the required loader in the ixed subdirectory within your SourceGuardian installation directory. So, I found that ixed.4.4ev.lin file but I don't know what to do with it. Do you know? Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Caesar Posted June 18, 2007 Share Posted June 18, 2007 If the host/server configuration allows for run-time loading, you can upload the loader to an "ixed" folder. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
