Are wordpress plugins often encrypted?

 

Encryption of WP plugins does happen, but usually there are little to no reason for doing so. Most PHP-encryptions can be broken, or reversed, so if anyone really wants to, they will be able to read and change your code.

There is a reason why it's called "open source" - I suggest finding other ways to make a buck on the plugin, either by offering value that isn't readily available in other plugins, or by offering a service that is so much better than any existing plugins that it will be rumoured to be the best, and spread widely - ask for donations, or charge for downloads - believe me, there will be money to be made by this, regardless of whether or not the script is encrypted.

 

Well maybe zend it but i havent seen encrypted plugins as such only encrypted footers in the template which are reversible
