About Mail And Content Protect
From the official readme · v1.0.2Description
Stop spam bots from harvesting your email addresses and keep sensitive content protected – with one simple Gutenberg block.
Why Mail And Content Protect?
Publishing an email address or phone number on your site is an open invitation for spam bots. Mail And Content Protect is a robust plugin designed to safeguard your emails and content from spam and unauthorized access, so you can share contact details with real visitors without feeding the scrapers.
The block supports four content types – Content, Email, Phone Number, and URL – and comes with customizable options, so you can tailor the protection measures to suit your specific needs. You can also set the typography and color of the secured values so they blend perfectly with your design.
Add the block anywhere in the Gutenberg editor, pick the content type, and adjust everything from the settings sidebar – no code required.
