jtikcuf 3 Posted December 3, 2013 Report Share Posted December 3, 2013 How can you block a wordpress from being downloaded? So what i want to do is disable to option for any one to download a wordpress site. I know some site are able to be downloaded. But others you cant download and if you download it only downloads certain folders. Does anyone have experience in doing this? If so is there a plugin? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
justsomeguy 1,135 Posted December 3, 2013 Report Share Posted December 3, 2013 If you put a file online, it can be downloaded. If you don't want someone to download something, don't put it online. A web browser downloads content from the server, so if the web browser can load it then they are downloading it. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

But just so you understand, if you put it online, you can't totally protect it. Simple as that. It's always available. You can make it slightly harder, but guaranteed you can't prevent it from being copied. But if your attempts to protect content make your website harder to use, it isn't worth it.

Ingolme 1,035 Posted December 23, 2013 Report Share Posted December 23, 2013 robots.txt stops search engines from indexing certain files. It won't stop people from downloading them. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
