<h3>External services</h3>
This plugin may redirect users to external websites in the following scenarios:
<ul>
<li>
Pro Version Page: When users access the “Pro Version” menu item in the WordPress admin, they will be presented with a page containing a link to our website (https://needsplugin.com/np-formshield/) where they can learn more about Pro features and pricing. This is a user-initiated action – users must click the “Buy Pro Version” button to visit the external website. No automatic redirects are performed.
</li>
<li>
Premium Upgrade Notices: When users interact with premium features or disabled premium form plugins in the dashboard, they may see upgrade notices with links to our website. These links open in a new tab and require explicit user action (clicking the link).
</li>
</ul>
All external links are clearly labeled and require user interaction. No data is automatically sent to external services without user consent.

A lightweight plugin that protects plain email addresses and mailto links from email-harvesting robots, by encoding them into decimal and hexadecimal entities. Has an effect on the posts, pages, comments, excerpts, text widgets and other filtered content. Works without JavaScript — just simple spam protection.
To see whether all your email addresses are properly protected, use the free <a href="https://encoder.till.im/scanner?utm_source=wp-plugin&utm_medium=readme" rel="nofollow ugc">page scanner</a> tool.
Other content (like phone numbers) can be protected using <code>[encode]</code> shortcode:
<pre><code>[encode]+1 (555) 123-4567[/encode]
[encode link="tel:+15551234567"]+1 (555) 123-4567[/encode]
</code></pre>
<h4>Premium Features</h4>
<ul>
<li>Full-page protection that catches all email addresses</li>
<li>Hardened protection using JavaScript and CSS techniques</li>
<li>Improved phone number protection</li>
<li>Built-in plugin support for ACF, Jetpack, WooCommerce and many others</li>

Email Address Encoder


This might work with page or post content, but does not with widgets. I can't recommend using this and suggest to use the plugin "Email Encoder" by Jannis Thuemming instead, since that does the job out of the box.
