What is Watermark Pro?
Watermark Pro is a professional add-on for XenForo 2.3.0+ that automatically adds customizable text or logo watermarks to all images uploaded to your forum. It protects your forum content, prevents copyright infringement, and increases brand awareness.
Why Watermark Pro?
Your forum content is valuable. Images shared by your users can be easily copied and used elsewhere without permission. Watermark Pro offers a professional and safe solution to this problem:
- Does not touch original files (dynamic mode)
- Setting changes apply instantly
- Works on all existing images
- No backup storage required
- Does not affect server performance
- Ideal for large sites
Watermark Pro can work in two different modes:
1. Dynamic Mode (Recommended):
Watermark is applied only during display. The original file never changes. When a user views an image, the system instantly adds the watermark and displays it. Smart cache system ensures no performance impact.
2. Permanent Mode:
Watermark is permanently embedded into the file. Original file is backed up. Recommended only for small sites and test environments.
