This article will discuss in detail how to automatically add image watermarks and enable anti-crawling interference codes to the article content on the AnQiCMS frontend, so that your original content is effectively protected.

一、Understanding the Importance of Watermarks and Anti-Capturing

Image watermarks and anti-capturing interference codes are two powerful tools for protecting online content.

Image watermarkThe function is self-evident, it directly declares the ownership of the image by overlaying brand logos, URLs, or copyright information on the image.Even if the content is republished, the watermark can play a role in brand promotion and traceability, effectively reducing the risk of difficulty in accountability after the picture is stolen.

Anti-collection interference codeIt is more concealed, using special characters, code snippets, or structural adjustments that are invisible to the naked eye or difficult to detect within the content of the article to interfere with automated collection tools.These interference codes can disrupt the structured recognition of content by the collection program, making the collected content chaotic, incomplete, or containing invalid information, thereby greatly increasing the cost of content cleaning for collectors and reducing their willingness to collect.At the same time, for those who try to copy and paste directly, the interference code may also show some abnormalities after pasting, achieving a warning effect.

These features built into AnQi CMS are designed to help operators effectively prevent content theft and plagiarism while ensuring a normal reading experience for users, thus protecting the exclusivity of original content.
