You can encode it with Zend guardian or ioncube

 

does zend guardian offer free encryption

 

sorry for noobie question but what is zend guardian

 

or simply base64 encode it

 

md5() it.

And how you would decode it?

 

i use this site to encrypt is fast and online:

How will Search Engine see the links when encrypted? Will it affect the backlink?

 

no,it not affect! the links are encrypted but are visible do search engines!

 

I have tried this script but not sure if is working or not. After uploaded, I went on to view the source code and it was just normal html code.

 

thats why the search engines are seing as normal html,but in your original file it is encrypted

 

Question, would someone be willing to encrypt some links for me? I know it's lame, but I'm not a PHP guy at all and I wanna sell some links for a theme I got, could someone help me?

 

I have a slightly related question about this type of encryption.

The generated HTML is just plain old HTML. But the scripts on the server are encrypted.

How does the server know how do decrypt the code before it is output?

Usually this is done with an encryption key, but I don't know how the server knows what the key is. I've seen this a lot with Wordpress themes, where they encrypt the footer so that the links will always point back to the original writers website. So the encrypted code is transferable from server to server, but the code is just a bunch of gibberish, and I can't see any way for the server to know what they encryption key is so that they can decrypt the code and serve it up as plain old HTML. Any ideas?

 

I have the same question.
