remove Social Media Share buttons

I am going setting up an adult themed site and need to remove the social media share buttons from the site completely. How do I do that? I have tried the answers to the previous posts.

 

Also I would like to turn off the right click functionality of the site for copy and paste of photos and videos?

As far as I can remember, I removed the Recommend block from Photos View, Videos View and any other pages containing the block in Page Builder. I also used Modzzz Actions Manager if I recall. but you could do it as described by Deno:

With regard to removing Right Click: Why bother. People can simply do a screen shot, something I always do when right click has been disabled.

thank you johnk42, I do the screen shot as well, most of the users that are requesting my new site are trained to not have the right click option available and believe they are more secure without that functionality and do not realize the screenshot or keyboard options are still active and work easily for the copy function. I was just curious. 

 

I did finally get the share buttons to go away so that was good.

 

thank you

There is no harm in going ahead and disabling right click; there is a mod in the market but you can also do it using jquery/javascript code in the injections part of the header.

Images are harder to get; images are actually background images with the right click save image saving the transparent gif on top of the image.  It really is hard to prevent someone from getting images if they really want; most browsers have a save page complete option.

The best thing to do is to lock the site down to members only; hide the front page using the built in page access control and then have you members sign a "contract" that if they repost images from the site anywhere else they face liability in court as breach of contract.

And you can also watermark the images. That's what I do.

Regarding the share buttons: open your site with chrome or firefox (maybe chrome is better in this case) right click on the button you would like to remove and then chose the inspect element option, your browsers developer console will subsequently open and from there you will be able to figure out what id or class the share button has, do this by moving your mouse over the button you would like to remove while at the same time looking the style tab in your developer console to see what is highlighted when you fiddle with the button, that way its easy to find out what css your button has, it can also be good practice to try editing the relevant css properties for that specific element directly in the browser console before making any changes to your code, mainly to make sure that you correctly have identified what class your looking for, also to see what potential results any modifications may have. the next step to actually implement your desired changes may be done by opening your favorite text editor i.e. WS code, atom, brackets, sublime, note++ or any other advanced text-editor and then add your websites document root as a new project folder and then search the folder for your elements class and might help you find the location of the code you need to edit, if you just want to remove/hide the share button, try to add css property{display:none;} to your buttons class and it should disappear, keep in mind that other with same class may also disappear, in that case you could add a new class or special id for that button, and then modify the relevant html markup file to match your new changes...

 

Regarding your question about copy and paste images: there is probably no direct straight forward easy answer to how you completely prevent copying of images, because there are various methods in witch images can be "copied" from a website and it all depends a lot of different variables. But as GeekGirl already mentioned, the most obvious and common solution would be using javascript or JQuery, and there are lots of easy to implement plugins and code snippets that can take care of that, another way is using your .htaccess file, there are many great boilerplate's, resources and templates for .htaccess rules, one example can be found here https://github.com/phanan/htaccess but remember that its not recommended to overly use your .htaccess file to solve all kinds of problems, because it uses unnecessary server resources and ultimately slows down your website, its better to set rules in your httpd.conf, all configurations that can be set in .htaccess file can also be set in httpd.conf but if your not sure about what your doing, or just need to set a few rules or test something, it might be better and more safe to use .htaccess file, because only a small mistake in httpd.conf may result in crashing your server and if your not experienced using SSH this can be a really bad headache..
