- ChangedMaintenance release.
What it does
Photographers who sell images online face a simple problem: buyers need to see the work, but a visible high-resolution file is easy to copy. This addon adds a watermark to large images on your site with one click. You supply a transparent PNG, such as a logo or signature, and it is placed over your images. A visible mark discourages casual theft and makes ownership clear, which can help if you ever need to pursue someone using your photos without permission.
The addon requires the Sell Media plugin and works alongside it. You can watermark every large image on the site or only the images you sell through Sell Media. It does not overwrite your originals or create duplicate copies, so your source files stay untouched. Watermarks apply to images hosted locally on your WordPress site, and setup needs no coding. It suits photography storefronts, galleries and print shops built with Sell Media.
Best for
- Photographers selling images with the Sell Media plugin
- Visual artists displaying portfolios they want branded
- Online galleries and print shops built on WordPress
Features
Apply a watermark to all large images on your site with a single click instead of editing each photo by hand in separate software.
Upload your own transparent PNG file, such as a logo or signature, and use it as the watermark that appears over your images.
The addon does not overwrite your original files or create duplicate images, so your source photos remain intact on your site.
Choose to watermark only the images you sell through Sell Media, or apply the watermark to every large image across the site.
All eligible large images can be watermarked automatically, which helps when you have a big portfolio or gallery to cover at once.
The addon runs within WordPress with any theme and needs no coding skills to set up, so you can keep your current design.
Watermarks are applied to images stored on your own WordPress site, keeping processing and control of your content in your hands.
