What can Right Click Disable do for you?
Built for real Joomla sites
The Right Click Disable extension prevents right-clicking, text selection, image dragging, and source code viewing to protect your website's content.
Works Independently
Plugin or Module: Your Choice
Whole site plugin
Turn on System - Right Click Disable once and protect most of the site. Skip selected user groups, components, or URL paths when needed.
Selected pages module
Publish the module only on the pages you choose. Use Joomla Access levels to protect guests while editors stay free. Each extension works alone. Do not run both on the same page.
Popup · Toast · Alert · Silent
Four Easy Alert Styles
Pick how visitors are told
Show a styled popup, a small toast notice, a normal browser alert, or stay silent while still blocking the action.
Toast made simple
Choose corner position, how many seconds it stays, background colour, text colour, accent colour, and width.
Right-Click · Selection · Drag
Stop Casual Copying
Protect what matters
Block right-click on the whole page, images only, or links only. Optionally stop text selection and image dragging.
New content stays covered
Images and links added later by lazy loading or AJAX are included automatically in version 2.5.
Copy · Cut · Paste · Select All
Keyboard and Clipboard Control
Common shortcuts blocked
Stop Ctrl/Cmd+C, V, X, and A, plus Edit menu copy, cut, and paste outside forms.
Add your own shortcuts
Create custom combinations with Ctrl, Shift, Alt, and Meta from a simple Add row in the admin.
DevTools · Source · Save · Print
Advanced Shortcut Deterrents
Developer tools shortcuts
Discourage F12, Ctrl+Shift+I, Ctrl+Shift+J, and Ctrl+Shift+C, with optional detection when tools open after load.
Extra page actions
Optionally block View Source, Save Page, and Print Page keyboard shortcuts.
Safe by Default
Forms and Editors Stay Usable
People can still type
Allow Forms and Editors keeps inputs, text areas, dropdowns, and editable fields working.
Common editors included
Labels, TinyMCE, CodeMirror, and Joomla editor areas are allowed by default. Add your own CSS exception selectors when a page needs a free zone.
Presets · Per-Action Text
Clear Messages Visitors Understand
Ready-made wording
Choose Custom, Short, Friendly, or Firm. Your custom message is kept when you try another preset.
Different text per action
Optionally show separate messages for right-click, keyboard, developer tools, and screenshot attempts.
One Switch Each
Control Mobile, Tablet, Desktop
Turn devices on or off
Enable rules separately for mobile, tablet, and desktop so each screen size behaves the way you want.
Optional screenshot signal
Try mobile screenshot detection when useful. Treat it as a bonus: it is not perfect on every phone.
Colours · Size · Extra CSS
Make It Match Your Site
Popup styling
Set backdrop colour, text colour, width, height, font size, and font weight for the dialog.
Extra CSS when needed
Add trusted custom CSS for fine tuning. Unsafe patterns are blocked, and rules should target .jx-rcd-* classes.

Joomla 4, 5, and 6 Ready
Modern package
Works on Joomla 4, 5, and 6 with service providers, namespaces, module dispatcher, language files, and Web Asset Manager. Native JavaScript with no jQuery.
Honest about limits
These are deterrents for casual copying, not a content lock. Forms stay usable, and admins get clear conflict warnings when both plugin and module are enabled.

Have questions about Right Click Disable?
Frequently asked questions
Yes. Install and use only the system plugin for site-wide rules, or only the module for selected pages. Neither requires the other.
You should not target the same page with both. When both configurations are present, the frontend prefers the plugin, and the module admin shows a conflict warning.
No. These are browser-side deterrents. Visitors can still access content through browser features, cached resources, screenshots, assistive tools, or direct network requests. Do not use it to protect secrets or licensed source files.
Right Click Disable 2.5 supports Joomla 4, Joomla 5, and Joomla 6. It uses the modern service-provider architecture for both the system plugin and the site module. PHP 8.1 or later is recommended.
Use Joomla's native Access field. Create an access level that contains only the groups that should receive the module (for example Guest only), then assign that level to the module.
Yes. Version 2.5 uses document-level delegated listeners for right-click and image dragging, so newly added images and links are covered without rebinding.
Allow Forms and Editors is enabled by default. Inputs, textareas, selects, editable regions, labels, TinyMCE, CodeMirror, and Joomla editor containers stay usable. Turn it off only when those exceptions are not required.
Choose Popup, Toast, Alert (native browser dialog), or None for silent prevention. Toast supports position, duration, colours, accent, and maximum width.
Yes. Enable action-specific messages and provide separate text for right-click, keyboard, developer-tools, and screenshot signals. Empty fields fall back to the main message or selected preset.
Yes. Version 2.5 blocks clipboard copy, cut, and paste events in addition to common keyboard shortcuts, while still allowing those actions inside excepted form and editor controls.
Install pkg_rightclick_disable_2.5.zip for both extensions. Standalone zips are also available for the module or the plugin alone.
Visit support.joomlax.com. Include the Joomla and PHP versions, whether you use the plugin or module, page URL, and any browser-console errors.
