Smart Image Protection & Watermark

wpcustomca Frontend Upload Watermark can automatically apply a configurable logo and/or text watermark to images uploaded from the website frontend. The plugin is frontend-focused and includes a built-in upload shortcode for authorized users:

• Frontend image uploads can be watermarked automatically.
• Add [media_watermark_upload] to any page/post to show a frontend image upload form.
• Shortcode uploads are saved to the WordPress Media Library and watermarked automatically.
• WordPress Admin > Media Library / Add New uploads are skipped.
• Enable/disable frontend watermarking from Settings > Frontend Upload Watermark.
• Configure logo, text, position, opacity, size, margin, and minimum image dimensions.
• Supports JPEG, PNG, and WebP when supported by the server's GD library. Important: Watermarking modifies the uploaded image files. Keep backups when originals may be required.
