Phone and Email visible in source
« on: September 01, 2022, 11:58:43 AM »


As you can see in the screenshot, both Email and Phone are visible in the source code and can be easily harvested by bots.
So an obfuscation function is needed in the theme, in order to prevent this (maybe some JS encode/decode).

Delta v.1.3.1

Thanks!

If you have script that can crawl such data, you would surely be able also to apply decode function.
Only reasonsble way is to load it via ajax or split it into several parts
  To get fast support, we need following details: Detail description, URL to reproduce problem, Screenshots

Or use CloudFlare, it's free!

Sure, but not everyone uses Cloudflare. ;)
Matter-of-fact, the vast majority of all Osclass users can barely write correctly in their own language, and have no idea about how to modify the source and get Cloudflare setup.

Also, all major classified providers (Olx etc.) have obfuscated these info in their source codes.
So the report still stands.
