Copyfight

freemium plugin

https://getcopyfight.com

• Version: 1.3.7
• Author: Copyfight
• Last Updated: 2 weeks ago
• Requires WordPress Version: 3.3.0 or higher
• Compatible up to: 4.4.2
• Active Installs: 60+
• WordPress.org Plugin Page »
• Plugin Homepage »

The lowdown:

This is a freemium plugin that offers you the ability to help protect your content from online theft. The plugin is pretty easy to get going, just install and activate then click to the link to get your API key and enter your email and it activates. By default all your past posts will have to be protected as it is not automatic and when doing a new post simply select the protection from the options box.

One problem I had was deciphering the costs of suing the premium version from their website they do not have a pricing list but ask that you contact them, from inside the plugin setup there is the free to enterprise prices at 99, 299 and 999 per year.

They do talk a bit about how it works on your site by not depending on java but routing the data though their servers. As to what the limits are on the free version I am not sure but this looks to be a pretty good way to help protect your content especially if you create some unique stuff.

This is a pretty nice tool for making basic image edits for your site. You can take any current image you have then resize it, move it around add more images for different layers, add some text change colour and font of the text pretty nice, it also has a couple filters for greyscale, sepia brightness and contrast the free level and can be of use to most people. Once you save the image it is automatically added to your media library for use.

WooTicket Studio

Premium Plugin available here https://WooTicketStudio.com

The Lowdown:

This is a premium plugin for WooCommerce that allows you to sell tickets to your events right on your website saving you the fee of all the way you can sell tickets. It is a pretty easy plugin to get setup but you will be looking at some time to configure an event and customize the ticket output. it helps you create a great looking event page and more within your woocommerce site. For the quick and basics I put this though it works pretty well

Client Portal – Private user pages and login

The WordPress Client Portal plugin creates private pages for each user. The content for that page is accessible on the frontend only by the owner of the page after he has logged in.  The plugin doesn’t offer a login or registration form and it gives you the possibility to use a plugin of your choice.  The shortcode can be added to any page and when the logged in user will access that page he will be redirected to its private page.

I am running a Marathon and since it is the only one I plan to run I am looking to support a great organization that supports Canadian Vets suffering from PTSD. The group is called Can Praxis and they use Equine (horse) Therapy to helps vets learn to deal with the emotions that come from PTSD. I am raising the money though Wounded Warriors Canada who will send the money direct to Can Praxis. Please support our vets by going here and donating what ever you can. If your Canadien you will also get a tax receipt for your donation.
