I just finished my first Site Template on ThemeForest.
Now i searched for some tips to shared it to get the most purchased. Then i found some programmes which allow you to copy a full site from a web, e.g HTTrack
Now my question is: how can i prevent a copy request by a program like HTTrack?
Maybe i can manipulate something in my Demo-Files to confuse the program...
I found nothing in the web...
If you want to protect your intellectual property, add a (c) to it.
If you publish on the web, there nothing else you can do.
If you don't want others to copy your theme, don't publish it. And don't fall for stupid tricks like disabling the right mouse button. It only annoys people and will stop nobody.
One possible solution is to place only screenshots of your theme online, not the actual CSS/HTML, but if I were a potential buyer I wouldn't buy based on a screenshot. I would like to test it in the wild on different browsers/OS's.
