I've searched the forum and have not found anything that would work. I would like to disable right click when stories are read. I want to keep it everywhere else. I want this to protect my members from having there stories copied.
Does anyone have a code or mod that will enable this function.
Please don't. It's a useless gesture and annoying for users.
All a user would have to do is select 'Save Page As' from their browser window to download and save the entire page. Or they can use their keyboard shortcuts to copy text. Disabling right click does nothing in reality besides annoy people who use the right click function to open links in a new tab or use the short menu.
Skins made by Kali are no longer supported!
What Kali said. However, if you're still certain you want it, it's more javascript. Do a search on google/bing.
Please don't take reader's ability to open things in new tabs.

I never thought about that. I was thinking of my writers concerns for their stories being taken. I recently found one of my own stories on another site had been copied in part and claimed as there own. That's why I thought about doing that on the view story page only. But i wanted to keep it for the rest of the site. For now I guess i could leave it alone and wait and see if I have more than one member ask for it. Thanks guys for responding.
What's to keep people from just highlighting everything, pressing control c, control v in a textpad?

If they really want to steal it you can't stop them. They can do it like AnarchicQ said. Even if you found a way to disable that (and you could with javascript), there's no way to block view source or save as.
Maybe you can just set your website so that you have to be a member to read the stories. That may deter folks for a bit. At least if a story turns up somewhere else you could argue you have to log on to read these stories and you could then narrow it down to a potential reader of your site who might be a plagiarist. Mind you they still could steal stories but you are limiting the gene pool of who that might be.
