Which one did you choose? I chose the following plugins:
- All-in-One WP Migration by ServMask
- WP Content Copy Protection & No Right Click by wp-buy
- WP Forms Lite by WP Forms
Why did you choose it?
Well, All-in One WP Migration was a plugin I found when I was dealing with the dilemma of figuring out how to take my WordPress site from local server to live server. Surprisingly enough, a search on YouTube came up with a video posted from Local By Flywheel that recommended All-in-One WP Migration. I figured, well if the same company that I’m using for my local WordPress software is recommending it, then this plugin got to be at least decent. So far, it’s been great. It has over 2 million active installation, 4.5 out of 5 stars (based on 6,281 reviews), and it was last updated 2 weeks ago, so I know they are proactive in making improvements to the plugin.
For WP Content Copy Protection & No Right Click, that came about after I was wondering how I can prevent my images from being saved or downloaded. I wanted to protect my content. It has over 100,000 active installation, 4.5 out of 5 stars (based on 253 reviews), and was last updated 3 weeks ago.
And finally, I decided to go with WP Forms so I can create a Contact Form on my website. I chose this one because it was a familiar name. I had been proactively searching YouTube the last week or two for WordPress tutorial and the WP Forms name had been brought up a few time (either as a video sponsor or a recommended plugin in a YouTube tutorial). It has a 5 out of 5 stars rating based on 6,512 reviews, over 3 million active installation, and it was last updated 3 weeks ago.
What other plugins did you consider? How did they compare to the one you chose? I’ve considered No Right Click Images by Keith P. Graham to protect my images and contents. And for forms, I also considered Ninja Forms by Saturday Drive.
No Right Click Images has a 5 out of 5 stars, but there’s only 32 reviews so far. It does have over 20,000 active installation and was last updated 2 weeks ago. For me, I thought WP Content Copy Protection & No Right Click was the better fit for my WordPress site.
Ninja Forms was reasonably comparable to WP Forms; it has 4.5 out of 5 stars based on 1,051 reviews and has over 1 million active installation. I just decided to go with WP Forms out of curiosity and because more people had reviewed WP Forms and also due to WP Forms having about 2 million active installation over Ninja Forms. I may try out Ninja Forms later on to see what it has to offer. If for nothing else, it’s because the author has a very cool “New Retro Wave” name. Saturday Drive, kind of makes you want to get behind the wheel of an ’80s sports car complete with flip-up headlights and a four speed automatic transmission with “Overdrive”, playing Synthpop/Vaporwave through the four way speaker sound system as you drive along scenic Pacific Coast Highway, near the beach just as the sun is about to set in the Pacific Ocean and the city lights around you just lit up.
What other plugins did you try? I actually did try out No Right Click Images initially, but I found that it didn’t necessarily protect my images as it can still be saved if a visitor were to save the web page for offline viewing or print the web page. It did deliver what it promised as a visitor cannot right click any images to save it, but when a web page is printed or saved, it didn’t prevent an image from being saved that way.
How was you experience browsing through the plugin directory?
Overall, it was pretty good. Overwhelming variety and selection to choose from, but at the end of the day, I just selected what I needed for my website. Looking for plugins was simple from the Dashboard view. Just go to Plugins, click Add Plugins, start searching for a plugin that fits your need.
After you find one, click Install Now and Activate. You can keep track of the plugins you have by clicking on the Installed Plugins tab.
