Doesn’t protect emails

Hi @egoruk ,

something seems to went wrong if the e-mail addresses are still visible as “plain text”.

normally cryptex executes 2 actions to protect the addresses:

1. the address/text is expressed as an image (or multiple images)
2. the “mailto link” is obfuscated by using simple key-shifting algorithm

therefore it should never shown a plain text address if you’ve set the E-Mail Security Level (Cryptex -> Appearance -> E-Mail) to images. the “text” option of this setting does only exists for backward compatibility.

could you please provide a link to your site and a small code snippet how you’ve added the addresses (via shortcode or autodetection) ?

best regards, Andi

Hi Andi,

I don’t think Autodetect works.

I ended up using this format: [email][email protected][/email]

If I use [cryptex href=”mailto:[email protected]”]Click to email[/cryptex] or [email href=”mailto:[email protected]”]Click to email[/email] the emaails are visible in the page source.

You can see here at the bottom: see this page

or take a look around other pages

Thanks!

i cannot see any plain text addresses within your page (linked above).

the header e-mail is obfuscated by the following code:

<!--CTX!--><span rel="66312d306b310a30833123308f311a307d312b30893125306a312630" class="cryptex " style=""><span class="CryptexImg ctxVBDd9ZrNCa8WMB3djPBWo_dmTbAcVx_XIJGFS5jqCuQ"></span></span><!--/CTX!-->


the footer looks like this:


<!--CTX!--><span rel="65312d30a0313431b6311f3196311031ad311431bb310b31a7312131ad312f31c6312a31d0311831c7311731c6313731b7313c319e312e31a8312231a5313a31a3312431aa310c30b3311f31c331" class="cryptex " style=""><span class="CryptexImg ctxnvGtzGQlq1AIuOPIlyNb1-Pt63VCcEZyxoYQ57WZDE4"></span><span class="divider" style="">[at]</span><span class="CryptexImg ctxDw0Pxf-dH_iLF89nr3mMQZkE1kkwuuxbZtrKKYcJXQc"></span><span class="divider" style="">[.]</span><span class="CryptexImg ctxCvjVa3Tpzp1SckSyxbuGFeyM3aib_LRuTEGJIIQbId0"></span></span><!--/CTX!--><br />
<!--CTX!--><span rel="66312d306b310a30833123308f311a307d312b30893125306a312630" class="cryptex " style=""><span class="CryptexImg ctxVBDd9ZrNCa8WMB3djPBWo_dmTbAcVx_XIJGFS5jqCuQ"></span></span><!--/CTX!-->


but your footer has an issue! – you’ve mixed a hyperlink (html code) with cryptex – this wont work. therefore please remove (delete) the text within the wordpress editor and add it again (no copy+paste)

but why do you think the addresses will be displayed as plain text ? i don’t understand your issue at the moment.

my last post has been suspended for manual moderation.

i’ve copied the content to github:

Andi, I’m not clear what is the issue with the footer. I don’t see it. And therefore I’m not sure what you want me to remove and add and where…

Thx.

the a href="mailto:" fragment shouldn’t be there. remove the whole a tag manually in html editing mode.

back to your opening question: whats going wrong with cryptex ? i cannot identify any issues related to plain text addresses on your site

I have no idea where that `a href=”mailto:” came from, must be created for the theme but I removed it.

As of the opening question. I wanted to have the email links in this format:
`[cryptex href=”mailto:[email protected]”]Click to email[/cryptex]
and it was not working.

i’ve just copy+pasted the code [cryptex href="mailto:[email protected]"]Click to email[/cryptex] into the testing environment and everything is working as expected: the text “Click to email” is displayed as an image and the e-mail address is clickable via the cryptex javascript code.

btw. the quotation marks of your code snippet are looking weird
