Dawn - Disable Right Click

[spacetimerider]

My site: etherealoasis.co

My theme: Dawn

Is there a way to disable the ability to right-click and display a message instead on the shopify store?

Thanks in advance for any help!

Hi there! This is Paul from the Weaverse team. Sure, you can disable right-click and show a message instead. Just add this JavaScript code to your theme.js file in the Assets folder:

document.addEventListener('contextmenu', function(e) {
  e.preventDefault();
  alert('Right-click is disabled on this site.');
});

Save the changes, and you're all set! Let me know if you need any more help.

Hi Paul,

Thank you for your assistance.  I couldn't find a theme.js file in the Assets folder, but I did find theme-editor.js. I tried adding the code to that file, as it has some similar "document.addEventListener" lines already in there. But, it didn't change anything that I can tell. I can still right click. Thank you in advance for any assistance you can offer!

etherealoasis.co is my website and I'm using the Dawn theme

Hi @spacetimerider , You can try to add the code to a different file, for example, the "global.js" file.
