I have spambotEmailProtector activated but when I hover over the email address in a WordPress page, it does not show the usual "encrypted" address like when using a 'regular' php page (not in WordPress.) The WordPress page has php in it (using the "exec-php" plugin) and the page contains a simple 'list' table that contains the usual code at the top including the required:
$libraryPath = 'cmsAdmin/lib/viewer_functions.php';Is there something I have to do to enable this feature when using it with WordPress?
TIA,
Eric

the spambotEmailProtector plugin only works when CMS Builder is being used on the page. You can try putting this line at the top of your page:
require_once("cmsAdmin/lib/viewer_functions.php");This was designed to work with CMS Builder only, so I'm not sure if you'll encounter any conflicts on the page.
Hope this helps

FOLLOW-UP:
Your suggestion didn't make any difference but I did find a WordPress plugin that seems to use a simple encode process to prevent webbots from harvesting email addresses. I'm sure there are others but this one works for me.
In their words: "Found email addresses are replaced with the return value of eae_encode_str() (changeable), which obfuscates the email addresses to protect it from being read by email-harvesting robots."
Maybe that will be helpful to others looking for some sort of email security when using WordPress and CMSB together on the same page.
Thanks again for your quick reply.
